Well my itch to pitch took a different turn, when my business went nuts. So.. On my itch to pitch I actually decided to go through inventory and get it gone through. In the end. over 900 books went out of my store and will be picked up this week. No pictures because at this point I would HATE for anyone to see the state of the garage with boxes upon boxes of books. But I will say the room we store our inventory in looks SO much better and more organized. Plus on top of that we had over 100 degree weather so we had to move stuff out of the way, to put in a air conditioner.....for the cat.. Yes. Clovis the attack cat had A/C. Keep in mind Clovis is a 15 year old feral cat. Shes old and this heat does not go ok with her anymore. And while I WOULD bring her in the house. Umm not gonna happen. She would kill the dog and maul the kids. LOL. I have brought her in during the cold of winter.. Did not work so well. Anyways.
This week I need to do more cleaning than pitching. Because we have Mr B's 10th bday Saturday. I can't believe its been 10 years. So double digit party here at my house Saturday... I just want it clean Lololol.

The Bears Room
This week I have been working on The Bears room. And we are ALMOST DONE! Surprisingly he pitched stuff on his own. This is my itch to pitch this week so no pictures will be shown YET. After being in his room for 3 days a little area each day, So far I realize almost every toy he has fits in his bins. He still has a toy box. I hate to think of getting rid of it. Maybe thats part of the baby in him I want to not lose. Hes only 6. But at 6, baby snoopy is not his fav decor. And Seriously I put 8 toys back in that toybox. Just to keep it in there. Even though he uses it more of a nightstand now. He has a alarm clock on it. But Im seeing the change in the room that is showing my, my last baby is growing up. Theres a bookshelf in there, with actual books on it that are not plastic chewy books. Theres a desk, so he can sit and read or draw. HE CAN READ! I think soon, I will have to give up the toy box, and just keep the memory of my last baby, as a baby.

Itch to Pitch

This weeks Itch To Pitch for me was my laundry area. I dove into junk drawers and trashed lil trinkets long forgotten, papers that I have no idea why were there, and found a few things I thought were long gone. Here is the befores..

Look closely even a highchair ended up in there.. hehe I had a delay and retook pics after babysitting. And after clearing stuff out... This is what they look like now...



I filled up a trash can full of trash. TONS of tools are now back in the garage. Paperclips and tacks in their right spots now. Pictures.. Man.. tons of those in the drawers. The dress up bin(the blue container) is now out in the garage..getting ready for my hope soon to be challenge in there.. yeah that will wait till its not so hot! Anyways...there is my week 2!

ITCH TO PITCH!!!
Ok SO I am following the Happy Housewife
in this endeavor.. Wish me luck.
My first area was my office area.. Which is multi-functional. I also use it for sewing. But I REALLY need a place to do my planning etc. So.. here is the before

And here is the after

I trashed a ton of paper, Avon books, stuff since I just decided I was done with that. And moved the sewing stuff under the end table so that it is still accessible.
I need to take another picture since adding a shelf next to my desk to hold books and papers I need.
Ok Lovely Happy Housewife.. Here is the beginning of the fun :)
