knee deep …

March 23, 2010

hi all!

i am up to my elbows in stuff…
boxes and boxes.
it’s terribly overwhelming.

i went through my kids closet, emptying bags and bags of clothes they don’t fit.
it’s crazy how many clothes kids can acquire and go through when they grow out of them so fast.

i also tackled my closet. i have a ton of stuff to get rid of!

now, i am going through boxes and boxes of stuff that was in our basement.
i’m discovering all sorts of things i forgot i had.
i found a box of my christmas decorations i was missing.
i found a lot of other things i need to get rid of.
i feel like the more i’m trying to organize, the more messy my house is from pulling everything out.
i think i’m going to have to have a garage sale…

and, did i tell you i spent almost all of saturday putting up the wallpaper in my studio?
it’s amazing!
… but, i’m still not done. 1 1/2 strips to go! wallpapering is tough..
don’t worry.. i’ve been taking pictures along the way.
i’ll post them soon!

’til then.

p.s. do you have the spring cleaning bug too?
