A productive, rainy day

I am doing the Holiday Grand Plan again this year. I am in denial about the fact that Christmas is so close, so I didn't bother to check the start date until this Friday, and found out it started August 27. Oops!

Luckily, we did a major declutter before we moved, so we were able to catch up today. It was mostly moving the couch out and vacuuming under it and under the couch cushions (which we do every few weeks anyway) and washing the windows.

I bought a shoe rack and some hooks for the coat closet. Now my purse and the camera are on a coat hook and there are cup hooks for keys. I hate things just being tossed on the book shelf right by the door, so hopefully this will stop it. Or else. lol

Christian finished putting the blue cabinet that I want to use for homeschool stuff back together, and then I helped him paint the inside. I think it will only need one coat, so after a few days of curing I will finally have the cabinet!

I have been Freecycling like crazy. We don't have much "extra" stuff left, but it is all going! I got rid of a rustic antique bench that I had, and today I posted (among other things) a lawn mower and weed eater. I also took a bunch of my fall decorations to the office. What she doesn't want she is going to offer to the many residents that hang out there, and what they don't want I will Freecycle. We *finally* got our garage door opener installed (it only took the guy 3 months!) so now we want to park in there!

Tomorrow I finish organizing under my bathroom sink, and my bedroom closet.

Another exciting day here in Mid-Michigan!
