Arn’t we always saying, I wish I had more time! Well here it is.

Just because you are home doesn’t mean you can’t get outdoors. If you have a yard or can go outside these are some really fun ideas.

- Learn something new! Pull out those projects that are hidden in your closet and start or finish them.
Decluttering and Organizing
Choose a room in your home and then see what can be decluttered. Obviously we can’t take these items to be donated yet, so just find an area in a closet or in your garage to store the donations. Throwaway the trash and organize everything that is left.
- The kitchen is a great place to start when decluttering. Look for duplicate items, anything broken, and unused appliances.
- Organize the kitchen.
- Declutter your wardrobe. Now there is plenty of time to try everything on and see what can be mixed and matched. Declutter items that are ill fitting or haven’t been worn in years.
- Go through all the shoes!
- Organize your clothes, I like to group my clothes by season. I currently have my winter wardrobe out and I am about to switch to my Spring/Summer wardrobe.
- Go through all the coat closets and declutter all the gowns or suits that will never be worn again.
- Declutter the kids clothes. My kids grow really fast and there is always something to declutter and donate from their wardrobe.
- Go through all the toys! Find the unused toys and donate them.
- Organize the toys in a way that makes sense.
- Declutter and organize the garage.
- Find all the projects that are hidden in the garage waiting to be done.
- Go through your home and analyze what you use and what you don’t. You might even notice furniture that isn’t needed.
- Look through your computer and see what can be deleted.
Random Things To Do
