valis2I've suddenly gotten a bit of motivation.
I tackled the guest bedroom today. Put all of the bedding in the wash. There were some doilies on the furniture, and there was this tall table with a long cover and doilies, and I discovered that the table was rather rickety and handmade out of pressboard, so all of that stuff is gone. I finally pulled stuff out of the closet and put the vacuum cleaners away. Discovered an aerobed in the closet! Huzzah!
Also rearranged more laundry supplies and discovered yet another container with watery liquid in it instead of soap. This has happened countless times so far. So that's another container I've eliminated, thank goodness.
But the best was when I went through the big cabinet in the kitchen, and the cabinet under the phone.
I can make a fort out of boxes of Ziploc bags. No, seriously, check it out.
A fort.
It feels nice to have organized them, at least. I'm getting down to the last few nooks and crannies.
Next? I start putting pictures on the wall. squee!
ETA: I should mention that I have these bags because my grandmother hoarded bags, so when she moved to the Assisted Living place we ended up taking some. And when we moved into this house (which was Husband's grandmother's) she left a ton of stuff. Including 23495623498 rolls of paper towels and boxes upon boxes of Ziploc bags. And laundry detergent. Hence the fort.
