Fantastic!
We have made it to the third week of the Controlling the Chaos Challenge!
Doesn’t it feel great? You now have a clean purse, vehicle, wallet, diaper bag, briefcase and file system as well as a new handle on incoming and out going papers. Right?
I know, I know it is probably quite cold outside BUT it NEEDS done, today. (You may need some of the information from the papers later this week.)
I personally, thought I would only find a few odds and ends for the trash can in our vehicle glove box and storage areas.
BOY, WAS I WRONG!
Today we are purging and organizing the freezer.
If you have been “Just Making Do” for the past 14 days this process should be MUCH easier today than it was on Day One.

For some of us this will only take 10 minutes, for others, a few hours.

Alright, it is time.
I know we are.
Sorting, filing, shredding and scanning is what we will be doing for days 6, 7, 8, and 9.

Still need inspiration? Don’t be afraid to return to Controlling the Chaos-Day 5 for ideas and don’t put it all off until the last day. The idea of taking four days is to remove the stress and be thorough in our processes.
My personal plan is going to work something like this (I hope):
