Hoarder no more

I am astounded. As gross as A & E's Hoarders can be, I really do have some of these people's weaknesses. The main dumping ground for me is Matt & I's bedroom. Sad, because it had been a year since it was free of all the clutter. Alarmed to say the least, I've set some goals for myself, re-prioritized, & set about getting it done. Yesterday was a proud day, to see stacks & piles sorted out. Making room for rest & romance, that is truly the bedroom's job.

Love that! Found through this guy who issued a 100 things challenge. Very inspiring for those of us fighting the good fight against stuff.

Also, a few weeks back the boys were having a grand old time with their Auntie when the dining table came crashing down in two bits. We have been using 2 round tables we had in the basement for storage ever since. I think we may stick with it for awhile. It feels so good to make do with what you have. For sure the checking account appreciates it.
