Finishing Up Living Room, Hallway and Kitchen

There are three places that require working on if we are to get the living room, hallway and kitchen clean. The hallway closet, and the stuff piled on the shelf, no matter how it looks, it doesn't look neat enough. It just looks like magazines piled on the shelf.



I've got a solution for this problem by doing this:



the small containers will take care of the brochures. And I have magazines that need to go in magazine holders: both photography magazines as well as aviation magazines. This will enable the magazines to have secure and sturdy support and it won't fall over when I go to remove a book.

I'm also hoping to take the hallway closet and put some containers on it so that it makes the towels piled in the hallway closet neat and tidy.

Trying to get this place clean, the way I want to get it clean and organized, is very costly. But it needs to be done, because I don't want to have to do another large cleanup which I have had to do every single year since the time I've gotten my own place and married.

The hallway closet solution would be something like this:

With the towels and sheets neatly folded and placed in 4 of these, it will make the closet a lot neater. And it will also make the area a lot tidier. When the towels are used, they will go immediately into the laundry hamper and when the laundry is done, the towels will be immediately folded and placed back in the container. That way it doesn't look as though the towels and sheets are overflowing.

If the house is organized right, the tidying will go a lot easier

Going absolutely APE-SHIT!!!

What a mess, I've been busy damned near all day, with breaks to feed Storm. I haven't eaten at all today, yet and I've been going full blast since I woke up this morning. I want to get this cleanup done right so that I don't have to do this kind of clean up again. I got no problem with maintaining the place. I just don't want to have to do a massive cleanup every f*ng year like I have for the past 12 years.

We need to get a rug cleaner. The kids spilled hot chocolate powder on the floor and the carpets are stained all to hell.
