I spent a lot of time this weekend decluttering. I went through the kids’ closets and weeded out stuff that didn’t fit, was worn out, etc. There is still a lot of work to be done but I can see that I made progress. I’ve decided to implement “The Fly Lady” system again in hopes of gaining control over the house.

Here are some articles I enjoyed this past week from the Frugal Blog Network:
