Another Week....More Snow

Guess what??? It's snowing outside again!

It really shouldn't be a big surprise around here. It took Zan twice as long to get to work this morning. It's also been very cold lately and it's going to get worse. I'm really itching for spring. I'm going to have to be really patient.

We didn't do much around here this weekend. Took the kids to the mall to run some errands yesterday after church, but not much else.

I've been on a real organizing, cleaning kick lately. I was able to clean the lower (main) level, dust and vacuum yesterday. I call the main level the lower level. Zan thinks I should call it the first floor? I prefer upstairs, downstairs and basement. Anywho, I'm working on some closet shelves and drawers this morning.

I have some projects I'd like to start, but I always like to have a clean house first. Call it a mid-winter clean. I can't/don't want to be outside so I might as well get the inside clean.

In preparation for my garage sale this year we're also "purging" the house of unused and unwanted things. This goes back to my organizing and decluttering kick that I'm on. But there's no sense in keeping things that you don't use or don't want. I want a nicely organized house. :)

I've also been trying to keep my camera out more to get more pictures. Here's Ella this morning at breakfast...



Oh, and Sam's potty training is going great! I guess I would call him potty trained now. He still wears a diaper at night and even with that wakes up most mornings dry. We haven't had any more pooping in pants either. He goes just fine on the toilet.

He's also pretty much stopped taking naps. He seems a little tired during the afternoon, but he wasn't falling asleep at nap time. He goes to bed really nicely and gets about 12 hours of sleep.

Well, off to get more cleaning done! Happy Monday!

You sound like me with the "decluttering" and purging old unused stuff. It must be the new year. I have been loading up my garage with stuff to go. It feels great to organize and clean up.
