Making Your Home a Haven Monday: Anti-Procrastination Day
Because I need the motivation (and maybe you do, too), I'm declaring today "Anti-Procrastination Day."Have piles of projects you been putting off? Today is the day to tackle them--stop procrastinating and get busy!
I'm going pare down our schedule to the basics today so I can hopefully start and finish some of these long-overdue tasks. I'll do a post late in the day on what we accomplished.
(Come to think of it, maybe I need to have an anti-procrastination week? Anyone want to host it at their blog? Last time when Mrs. Wilt did this it was a huge help to me and I'd love to have she or someone else do it again so we can all be inspired to get moving!)
---------------------
Join in the fun! Post about the projects you accomplish today (with before and after pictures!) or share anything else related to making your home a haven and then come back here and leave your link below so we can all be inspired and motivated. Don't have a blog? Tell us about your accomplishments in the comments section.

Hi Crystal-
I just finished a job that I really had been putting off, the craft cabinet! I love the idea of an anti procrastination week. I would be happy to host it at my blog...if only for my own accountability!
Great idea!

Crystal,
This is the focus of my week as well! I would love to host an anti-procrastination week at the pantry www.acompletepantry.blogspot.com and will include a giveaway for each day, please come check it out! It will be up by 10:30am EST
Very cool idea! As I'm taking a small hiatus from my frantic coupon frenzy this week, I'm decluttering for our garage sale and getting back into my household routines that are all out of whack. I'll be posting at my place throughout the week. Thanks for the added inspiration!
Today is April 14th, and I filed my income taxes!
How silly of me to put this off, I am getting a refund. It feels so good to get this done, thank you, Crystal!
Okay, Crystal, you got it! LOL
I actually had been mulling this over for a while, but I take your post as "proof-providential" that we should re-visit the Anti-Procrastination Challenge Week! :o)
Well it's funny that this should be anti procrastination week - mine started yesterday. Our fridge has been in need of a good cleaning and yesterday, it died. It is still under warranty so no problems there however that really gave me the boost I needed. I emptied the contents (they're in my parents fridge for now) and cleaned with vigor. It looks brand new and I am so proud. The repair guy comes today so tonight I will be filling up my nice clean fridge. What a way to start off the week :)
Anti-Procrastination Day, huh? You are mean. lol I've been putting off mopping the kitchen floor for a while now...and now I'm half done. I'm taking a couple minutes for the floor to dry so that I can finish the other part. I suppose I'll have to think about some other "procrastinations" I have (I'm a HUGE procrastinator so I'm sure I've got lots to choose from) when I get some time and I'll post them on my blog.

I've been cleaning out my girls' closet today. We seem to have a clothing overload in this house, and I've gotten three boxes of baby/toddler clothing to give away, not to mention how much is going to charity. (All of which is in black plastic bags, because if my children were to see the contents I would have some fights on my hands!)
Thanks for this series on Making Your Home a Haven, Crystal. It motivates me not just to start something, but more importantly to finish something by posting pictures for accountability!
The BEST thing I can do on MONDAY to keep my home running at it's very best is what I call my "Weekly Home Blessing Hour". This is where I tackle that 'pile' of stuff that accumulates. Anything from junk mail, bills, invitations, things I need to file...just anything, usually lots of paper that needs to be attended to. If i do this every Monday, I rarely lose anything important, bills get out on time, I am just generally much more organized and efficient for the rest of the week. This really works!
