Here’s a little something I wrote to provide a little kick in the pants motivation as you near the end of the challenge 🙂 Don’t quit on me now!
The Big Push
by Org Junkie
From this junkie to you
Please don’t be blue
When I cut to the chase
And get into your faceListen to my urging
It’s time to get purging
You have too much stuff
Way more than enoughIt’s taking over your life
And causing too much strife
Remember you are the boss
Time to kick out the chaosThink about a buying freeze
Please, please, please
No more, no more
Coming in the doorWhat’s holding you back
Don’t give me any flack
Stop your muttering
And get declutteringI want you to see
What doesn’t have to be
It’s time to be aware
Of the clutter everywhereYou don’t have to have a fit
About getting rid of it
You only have so much space
To put everything in placeDon’t quit on me now
And don’t have a cow
All you have to fear
Is my kick in your rearPeace and harmony
Is how it should be
Isn’t that the key
To a happy familyThis challenge you’re on
Is just about gone
The end is almost near
You’d better get it in gearTry to have some fun
While getting it all done
Happy organizing today
That’s all I have to say! 🙂
If that isn’t motivation enough (ha ha!) be sure to check out the awesome prizes up for grabs. Two of these prizes include:

Devon says
LOL good stuff. I’m still hanging in there!!
Joyce @ Keeping Up With The Moys says
Very nice!! =)
And just when I was about to throw in the towel. I don’t think I’ll make it to organizing the room before the end of the month because my sickness is lingering. Being recovering after having my baby, I have not felt like this in years. Me, how made perfect attendance from middle school to college. We are still going to finish the project, but probably not by the month’s end. =p
I’m still looking forward to seeing how everyone else did!! Bring on the transformations!

Laura you are crazy! Cute poem. I’m almost done just putting finishing touches on. This has been a great challenge. I’m going to do this every month through out my home. Thank you for the kick in the rear:)
Susanne says

Annie says

I’ve been cleaning and organizing and painting, oh my, and now I’m working on my “after” post and need to know what kind of process questions you want answered for official entrants. I’ve gone through a process, let me tell you, and I want to make sure my post says what you need it to say, because my “before” and “after” are pretty dramatic and I want to win! Ha!
