Welcome to this week's tips
We celebrated my grandson's first birthday with a small party. Below is the before and after for his birthday pudding pie. Two weeks before that he got an ear infection so he spent his actual birthday miserable at home. We were very happy he was feeling better for his party. We'll have to go to the zoo another day.
Besides cleaning up for the party and cleaning up after the party, I reorganized the chest freezer as I was looking for our frozen blueberries, cleaned my office up from some birthday scraps and cleaned my bedroom which had been neglected with party and baby care.
A good reminder that things are not going to stay organized 100% of the time. Life happens and then you get back at the organizing and cleaning.
