It's almost been a year already? This is turning into one of those annual letters you get at Christmas. Well, I have an accomplishment that I just have to write about somewhere, and here seems as best a place as any...
I was motivated by Judd and his building of our walk in closet in our room. I cleaned out 2 clothes baskets worth of stuff - you know, the ones you quickly fill to clean up the house when company is coming over, then shove it into a corner of your bedroom, only to be forgotten. Yeah, 2 of them!! Add to that the top of the table in our room - another dumping site - and the corner next to the vanity in our room - something that hasn't seen the light of day for quite some time - AND part of the bottom of my existing closet! I threw away an entire garbage bag of stuff, have 3/4 of a clothes basket to donate, and another 3/4 of a clothes basket to mend.
How is the new closet coming? you may ask...well, I have a new stud wall with an outlet and a light switch, 2 new lights, and a partially installed heater. Once the heater is finished, then we can install the drywall. I already have the new color for the bedroom picked out, so I can't wait!!....but....I am a patient wife of a carpenter, so I will take project progress whenever it happens.
