So after the great closet-clear-out of 2010, I woke up on Saturday morning with an urge to clean OUT and organize! I cleaned out my closet even more, tossing more jackets and cocktail dresses/evening gowns that I wore in 1998 and probably should never wear again. I ended up organizing all the clothes into three piles: one for the Salvation Army, one for my sister, and one for my sister-in-law. Then I cleaned out the guest bedroom and closet and did a little vacuuming. Then I resorted to organizing our two bins of random electronic stuff and cords. I wrapped up all the cords and then twist-tied them into neat little bundles, grouping them by type. Telephone cords here, cable cords here, internet cords there. I will admit, I was on a bit of a tear. Oh and I also cleaned out both cars and did some other tidying up! I was crazy. I need to have productive days like that more often. Somehow I didn't get to some of my other cleaning but oh well.
Then today my friend Em and I went to IKEA (had a nice little suburban day including lunch at Olive Garden with tasty soup, salad, and breadsticks!) and I got a bunch of cute little hooks to hang up stuff in my closet. This one has all my rubber-bandy workout headbands. This reminds me I should work out a little more but also that I don't need any more headbands.Ooh, scarves on one set of hooks here... and I got some of those individual 3M hooks to hang up my belts on the right. It's sad how much this organization really makes me happy!! Also, if you need a headband, I'm probably your girl!
I think we might need to do a headband intervention soon ;) You should start wearing a different one everyday and see how long you can go without repeating one!
Hi, I'm April. My friends call me Apes, and my Hubs refers to me as "Monkey" because of that. I'm a thirtysomething who recently moved back to my home state of Indiana from Chicago. I love to hang out with my sorority sisters and other friends, gab with my family, shop at Target, cuddle with my son, play with my little niece Gracie, take photos, and spend time and love on my husband (Mike/Hubs), our little man (Emmett) and our beagledog (Milly). In short, I love being the family chatterbox, hugger and paparazzi. Hubs and I welcomed our little Emmett on January 8, 2011.

Oh my god that is a lot of headbands. I'll definitely call you if I need one
