so excited to get some goodies in the mail today!!!

So I was pointed to erincondren.com website from one of the blogs I follow!  There is so many wonderful products and she had this fabulous $20 credit so of course I wanted to take advantage of that deal and see what kind of goodies I could purchase!  I received my package in the mail and inside was my order, I placed an order for some labels to use in my Tastefully Simple business along with some more freebies.  How awesome is that?  Not only did I spend $20 FREE, but they also included another set of labels for me to use along with another $10 off my next purchase!  All's I have to say is you rock Erin Condren that's some very amazing customer service and I will be ordering for you again very soon :)

ABFOL Challenge: Bill and Filing Organization

Now as the CEO or my family as I like to call myself (I guess that just goes with being a former Accountant and C.F.O. of a family business) I needed to overhaul this process for myself!  I always find it funny that the one thing you do well whether it's your job or hobby always seems to lack in your personal life or maybe that is just me HAHA!  When I saw how beautiful Toni's system was and how easy it was to put together I was on a mission to complete it.  So I hopped in the car and drove out Nashville where my closest Container Store was, spent about 2 hours trying to decide what will work best for me and my space as I have a beautiful Computer Armoire I purchased from a couple about 6 months ago.  So I finally decided on their Bigso Boxes, came home and went to work! Although I don't have a before picture here are my after pictures and I absolutely LOVE IT!  Sometimes I just open the drawer or grab my bill paying box just to stare at it...I know that is silly, but I am just so pleased with how it looks and functions!

ABFOL Challenge: It's time to rid of the clutter and chaos

I am just in love with this challenge that Toni at  "A Bowl Full of Lemons" has been doing and now we are repeating it again!  I have always been one to want my home and life to be organized and once I had 3 babies almost back to back life seemed to over take and get in the way of that.  Now that my kids are all teenagers I know in my heart of hearts it was time to clear the clutter, organize my life for a more simple life!  I came across her blog last year and it just hit me as everything she does, teaches and discusses on her blog makes sense and it truly is easy you just have to COMMIT!  I always said I was that woman, if you have seen the movie "Sleeping with the Enemy" on how anal the husband was about how Julia Roberts character was suppose to keep everything spic and span...that was me!  Yes I have always aligned my foods according to brand and what they consisted of, my kids think I am crazy!  I have gone from a 3200 sq foot home in Southern California to a 1900 sq foot home in Middle Tennessee and my husband looked at me and said it's time you get rid of things as we cannot fit all of this stuff in a home that is over a 1000 sq feet smaller along with a 1 1/2 car garage verses our former 3 full size car garage in our former home.  So now I am on a mission to complete this as I know it will make life so much easier.  If you needed some inspiration hop on over to her blog and just look around, you too will be inspired as well!
