Moxie on Jan 09, 2014What a fun question! Every Spring I like to add a new plants that will return on their own in future years so that eventually, my annual plantings will be minimal and just for a pop of color.Helpful Reply

Lisa on Jan 23, 2014I get the covered patio cleaned up and ready for summer! Then move on to the front yard - refresh the beauty bark and potted plants, mow and edge the front lawn...Helpful Reply

Jennifer G on Jan 23, 2014I wash EVERYTHING in the house - Drapes, throw pillows, throw rugs, bookshelves & books, cabinets, occasional use glassware & china, closets - EVERYTHING! Then I usually update a few pieces and rearrange stuff to give my home a 'fresh' look. New pillow shams or change out the sheers in the living room or just swap them around into different rooms. I also get stuff together for the annual garage sale. Anything not used in the previous year goes! Keeps clutter down and brings in a little extra cash for needed house repairs. Whatever doesn't sell goes to a charitable foundation in my area. I love the DQ Blizzard idea - I might be adding that as a reward to myself :)Helpful Reply

Sarah Lystiuk on Jan 27, 2014I clear every single possible thing that I can from the garage (to the curb or the dump or good will or consignment or book market) then make a game of filling it up again by emptying the house and at the end of the summer do it all again :)Helpful Reply
