Organizing the Closet....1....Starting from underwears and Pyjamas

I don´t know that did I mentioned before that we´re still in the process of renovating....it have been a long time for me...to do, to try and to fight with people around me who want that I listen to them and do like that want...but it is my HOME...so let´s go slowly as I can...

I know I really has a bad behavior....I always make an excuse to myself that I can do it tomorrow...but it is time to stop it..and do it now...

My husband did hack a bit from IKEA PAX so it is fit to our small room which became our walk-in closet...my problem is I still don´t know how to manage all the things into this small room....

We did bought IKEA PAX corner section which is not available to buy anymore...and our problem is we do not have the clothes rail for the corner....I´m not really like the new IKEA PAX corner section at all...I think it is loose too much space at the back of the wardrobes....

But mostly my husband seem to find the space for his shirts and pants....so the rest is my job to do...

So now I take a look around and get an idea what I shall do...and here what I found...

I love the way all the bras in the drawer... frou frou fashionista

 This drawer is so nice too... simple organized living

This is really neat....I do love it... apartment therapy

Tips:
- Once in a while, you do have to take a look in a drawer and unfold all again....
- Checking on what you are not really use anymore - - - take it out!

So I do finish one part for my closet ^-^

New Year...New Me !!!

It is the new year begin....I wished every year that I can be a NEW ME!!! But until now I´m not really success.

BUT...

This year...I will!!!

So....
I can live happier and longer with my family....(everything is ok and every 3-month check-up the doctor didn´t find anything. The next check up appointment is in March....and it will be ok too ^-^ )

Here are the wish list for year 2013:

1. Finish the kitchen...everythings have to be in their place....We bought the kitchen last Fall from IKEA and it is nearly finish before Christmas 2012....we built it ourselves....just like we want....

2. Organising....I´m really bad on organising....I tried to it...but....my laziness is always win....but this year I will win !

I have been looking and reading for the way to organising....I just pick up some points from so many bloggers and here what I already done it every day....
 
- Do the bed every morning....
- Separate silverware already in the dishwasher so it is faster after the wash is finish...
- Go to bed early and wake up early so I have more times to do all the things...
- Prepare the dress for the boys for the next day at the end of their beds every night.
- Prepare the table for breakfast every night.
-
-


3. Stop thinking negative....Ignoring things around me that made me sad....thinking for today....and have more time for my boys ^-^

4. Family Command Center....I would love to have one...but still don´t know where would be the best...so let´s see but here are some ideas I love...

- I would love to have two Dry Erase Calendar....so it is enough space for this month and next month. I love this one from http://getonwithitalready.wordpress.com/2012/03/03/entry-command-centre-launch-pad/




- A Chalk/Magnet Wall that my boys can draw/write/show their work at the bottom half of the wall..kind like this one from http://createald.tumblr.com/post/30313070288/diy-chalk-wall






- Family Name Initial...maybe?!?
- Family Photos?!?



I will just start with some little wishes first....and then let´s see what´s coming next....

Two years ago after the happiness of the member....our Sky....he was such a cute little boy for me...who didn´t to come out (overdue) and I´ve got C-section because he´s seem to be too big...and he was 4,220 Grams. We were so happy...then the Truth was coming that I have Breast Cancer...I just couldn´t believe what I heard from the doctor..

I have to stop breast-feeding immidiately and prepared myself for all theraphy...I´ve got 8 times Chemotheraphy...then Breast Operation and last Radiotherapy.

Now after all the fight, I´m healthy again... And because of the difficult to get a job here in Germany for foreigner so I decided to run my own business at home...so I can have a quility time with my two boys...Sea (will be 5 years old in October) and Sky (2 years and 6 months).
