rooms

 

 

You know the old saying, "Take a picture, it will last longer." That is the thought here. Feeling blue about my brother and the crib gone, I threw myself into a massive effort to geer up "the machine" for the first day of school. All drawers, closets, and bedrooms in good functioning order, bathroom poised and ready for morning onslaughts, and the whole house decluttered and set into workable order. I spent all day Saturday on the kids rooms...painted the girl's bunkbeds and built, sanded, and painted the ladder. While waiting for the paint to dry, I completely organized Vin's room. It was near midnight when I finished the girl's room, putting up the last American Girl poster. On Sunday afternoon, we hauled out the garbage bags full of trinkets for the garage sale and began the effort to make the garage functional...that might be beyond human ability though...
