Day 175 - Winner!!!

I slept in an extra hour today and didn't get up until 9...but once I got up I destroyed the day!!!

I got sick the day after Christmas and believe it or not, this is my first weekend being healthy since

So today I wanted to get a few of those chores done that were supposed to get done before New Years

First I "killed Christmas" (Steve's term for taking all of the Christmas decorations down)

Then to put the Christmas storage bins away I cleaned the garage and storage shelves

Then we went to Home Depot and bought a metal rack, came home and built it, and then loaded it up

With the rest of our garage storage (and the tools that make up our little home workshop)

(During this time Steve was working on refinishing our stair hand rails....that is going to be a huge project!)

Now back to me : )

So after the Christmas de-decorating and garage clean up victory I was pumped to do more...

So I cleaned out the down stairs hall closet and finally got some of my Christmas present put away

(My brother's girlfriend Nickee got me 16 red chargers and my mom got me winter appetizer plates)

Anyway the hall closet is my "party closet: full of extra wine glasses, decorative plates, disposable plates and Napkins, table clothes, candles, glass vases, and some gift wrapping supplies...and now it's all organized!

    

But I wasn't done yet!!! There was one more closet I wanted to tackle...

The upstairs hall closet is full of decorative pillows, extra bedding, drapes, picture and drape

Hanging hardware, chandelier light bulbs, candles, and a few unused storage bins waiting for more stuff

And now it too is perfect!  So take that cold, bronchitis, sinus infection, and year 2011 - I win!!!
