Spring Cleaning

I have been spring cleaning my office, organizing my desk, and cleaning up my computer this week.  This means that I finally found a place for all of the random files and folders on my computer desktop, and even took my new external hard drive out of the box and plugged it in!  In the middle of all of this organizing I came across a blog post from Cool Mom Tech called 5 ways to spring clean your computer that should help you all clean up your computers inside and out.  And then I realized that the handy hard drive cleaning programs wouldn't work with my apple computer, so I found this list to help clean up my mac: How to Clean Up a Mac Hard Drive.  So I feel like I'm about to be so productive in my newly organized office and cleaned up computer, when I hear my husband calling for me because there's something popping up on the laptop...looks like another virus!  So instead of being productive this morning I'm fighting a virus on what used to be my laptop.  I think I am ready to completely gift my lovely Dell laptop to my husband and purchase a pretty new MacBook to coordinate with my iMac...and then once my cell phone contract is up maybe I can trade my Blackberry for an iPhone.  The photo that I posted above is what I think my office should look like once I finish cleaning, and once I buy my new organizational furniture pieces as well (if I ever get around to ordering the furniture, I'll let you know how hard they are to put together)...and then maybe one day I will have my dream team of electronic devices as well.  Coming soon, I will post some before and  after office photos.

Ooh, are you planning to match the neatness of that office right there? Best of luck on that, Amy! It's good that you also considered doing some spring cleaning on your computer. A messy hard drive can ruin your focus when you're working. I'm sure you've had days like that, so it's about time to clean it up. I can't wait to see the before and after photos, Amy!

Well, good job on the spring cleaning! It's pretty fun to finish all that work, re-organizing, and then throwing away the items you no longer need. It can lead you to find some extra room for an improvement or two as well.
