Cleaning out my Closet
I have a dirty secret, my closet was horrible. It was cramped, stuffed, and filled with way too much stuff. I knew something had to be done, so I picked out an evening and decided to tear into my mess of a closet.
I dug out everything, and I really mean everything, and I threw it all on my side of the bed. I then went through it all, piece by piece, and shoe by shoe. I cleaned out a bag of clothing for the MOPS Sister Swap sale, and I threw out 1/2 of a trash bag of just junk.
I rearranged my clothes, and my bags too. I’m so happy with the results. I hope that this Winter (when we are all stuck indoors) I’ll finally get around to painting my closet and shelves. I might just invest in a shoe rack, or two to help keep me organized also.
Now if I can just get motivated and clean out the boy’s closet too…

My New Chair
Saturday morning, as my hubby was off to work, he hollered “Honey, there is something on the front proch that you need to see…” I ran to the door, and saw the new chair, and I knew that my brother had come by to visit, only we missed him.
So now I feel bad, we were upstairs when my brother came by, and my house is a vacuum for sound, and we completely missed him… Thade keep asking, “where’s Uncle Rob”, and then Dylan will point to the chair and say “Rob, Rob”. Maybe he’ll stop by on his way home, I’ve promised him Football and Chili if he stops by.
Either way, I’m going out and purchasing a Door Bell kit for the house, I don’t want to miss Rob again.
