It's spring and that usually means Spring Cleaning! I have had the last week off before I start a new job so I had to find things to do around the house. Of course I stocked up on recipes and had a few craft projects (as you can see from my new Recipe Binder from the last post). Then I had the urge to reorganize almost everything. I never really got the bug for spring cleaning before. In fact, it wasn't until my mother mentioned my sudden need to clean that I realized what was happening. The weather has changed to something a little bit more tolerant, I start a completely new career tomorrow, and we have finally made it through 1/4 of this overseas tour. A lot of changes in the last few weeks, and of course a bit more time on my hands has given me the chance to makes things new. I like having my life a little bit more organized, and I like it when somethings get a makeover. Just like the blog today!
As you can see I made a few changes to the look. I woke up this morning and looked at the dreary colors on this blog. All beige and brown. Very winter and fall to me. So I thought that adding a little more color would make things brighten up. I enjoy bright colors and the mood it can put people in. Hope you enjoy my sudden need for makeovers. :)
