Day FOUR- A Monumental Occasion

Take a good look at this picture and tell me that you wouldn't consider this a monumental occasion?

First of all, it really didn't take up that much room in the closet; my donation basket was stuck in a corner. But the pile rose and rose and rose until it was almost 5 feet tall. Not kidding.


Secondly, it took NINE bags of all sizes to gather everything together. And that was not including a full-sized comforter, 11 x 14 picture AND a diaper bag.


And lastly, it took me 30 minutes to bag everything...after I sorted it.


Next time, I'm not waiting as long as I did (which I really do want to say was 6+ months) to take stuff to donate. Ridiculous. 


And among other things, another occasion to celebrate:

 

WE HAVE STUFF ON OUR WALLS! 

Every time I walk into our bedroom, I smile because 1)My bed is made and I love having my bed made and 2)There are now paintings, lovely paintings my husband picked out just for me, hanging on our walls. They...please me.


Things are being crossed off and I like it. Maybe I'm doing the easy things first just for the fact that they are easy to accomplish, although I thought my desk would take a lot longer than it did. How did it get that messy in the first place???
