I have decided not to write a typical week 5 post. You know and I know how week 5 is going. It's nuts! There's too much work and too little week. We are pounding coffee like it's our job, and it is far too easy to get sucked into the stress of it all. Instead,…

This post contains affiliate links. Sometimes the small jobs take much more time than we think they will. Such was the case of the library closet. That said, these little organizational projects often make the greatest impact in our house because finally, everyone knows where items go, and they put them away. The objectives for this…
