I have managed to keep my kitchen where it needs to be since December 23rd!
Not one thing has been left on the kitchen table. That is the thing I am most proud of!!

So........... I will see what it's like to not track this month.
I tend to think I turn the corner on things and it's a new habit only for it to fall by the side.
If I see I'm slacking, I'll come back here to track.

In the mean time, I did get through and rid of a magazine from Jan/Feb, 2025.
National Geographic History magazine- fantastic magazine. But I don't take the time to read them when they come in.

I decided to leave the hand sanitizer and masks for now. They're in the top shelf in the bathroom cabinet, and I would need the step stool. I didn't feel like all of that today.

I did throw out a lot of junk mail and file some not junk mail.

Yesterday I was putting some items back into the very dead end kitchen cabinet and threw out some old towels, washrags, few old containers

Early evening took my sister the omelet pan, 6 dozen eggs and took 4 plants repotted for my youngest niece.

I pulled out some new socks to put on this morning. They're tighter on my toes than I like. They'll be going in the thrift store donation bag. I bought them one day when I was in town shopping. I don't remember the circumstances of why I needed socks that day.

OK, let me explain lol!!!
A sloppy joe in Australia is a sweat shirt. Don't know why, it seems like a silly name. Thongs are these rubber shoes. Once again not sure why they are called this. What do you call thongs? We call the undies a G String!!!! :rolleyes:

Flip flops - almost as silly!
Sandals are referred to as thongs because of the strap between the toes, pretty much the same principle as thong panties, except the "strap" goes between something else!! ;)

So true Jane. Perhaps flip flops only refers to the inexpensive plastic ones you wear to the beach or use as shower shoes.
