Projects

Well, we have just arrived home from another fun lunch out with friends. I had plans to go bowling today at 3 but our friends had plans to go bowling at 11. I figured that it might be a rough day when I arrived with my darling daughter in her swimming suit at gymnastics. She said, "Mom, what are you doing?" Okay, maybe we should try next door for our lessons instead since they have a swimming pool. We are going to spend the rest of the day working on our latest project.

For those of you following our progress, the shelves in the office are up. I read this great blog about collecting all the papers in your house in a basket to eliminate the clutter. There is now a basket holding many "important" papers in my office. I should go on record in sharing that a paper has not moved from the basket. So, the office is a work in progress but it is just too nice to work on more paperwork.

A few weeks ago, we moved my vest to the basement which worked really well until company came. So, we moved it upstairs and back to the basement again. We have turned the former "baby" room into a yoga studio which brings us to today's project. We are trying to get rid of all of the baby clothes. It is no small task but thanks to my friend's tagging gun, it is going faster now. We plan to sell out at an upcoming consignment sale so if you are in need of size 2, you should speak now before its too late.

Lastly, we have been working on clearing out the recipe box and trying to eat at home. This project isn't going so well this week but I can see the scale in my future so the calories from eating out really help out. We tend to make healthier choices at home which is good unless you want to keep your weight up. I also just discovered someone else's blog which gives her menu for the week, her grocery list, and the related recipes. Did I mention that my recipe box is already overflowing?

As the countdown to Cinderella continues, we are trying to get a few things in order. Well, some of us are trying. My daughter is currently stirring the confetti that she made with her Great Grandpa this week in her kitchen. How long do you think all of that confetti will stay in the pot?

Blessings,

Cindy
