I just found 11 more pairs of unfinished flip flops (groan). I guess I will add "decorated flip flops" to my "Mom's Boredom Buster Projects" list on the desktop. It will be a way to use up my extra fabric I have also located.
I also had a basket that held misc. baskets for gift giving. One basket I had purchased from a SCRAP store, before the move, must have been wet on the bottom from a plant. As I went through each basket, this particular one had a layer of mildew on it! Gross! Just one more reminder that cleaning is always a good thing.
Now that I know where my flour sack towels and hankies are, I must add that craft project to my "boredom" list also. They are hope chest projects, which are all stowed into one tote and labeled for each child.

Wear it out,
Make it do,

Spring Clean ~ More Stuff!
Over the days of decluttering, organizing and cleaning, I have found 25 new spiral notebooks in the utility room storage area, found 4 more in my bedroom closet along with 16 new writing tablets, and I believe I will find more. Any writer will find this hilarious. I guess I'm not doing enough writing by hand.
I believe the kids will be set for those school supplies for next year anyway. Ha ha ha!
I washed 2 more floor rugs also.
