As I'm sure you know, Colorado has been getting a lot of rain. And by that, I mean record rains. On Tuesday, Sept. 12, many parts of Colorado received as much rain as we sometimes get in a year. It has been rather amazing. Roads are washing away, houses are being destroyed, businesses are suffering. It's been a deluge!
Our basement has been among the literally thousands to have water in it. Luckily for us, it hasn't been much water, so we're all right - just a little stressed. It has, however, encouraged Tim and me to get going on some sorting. I was already planning a garage sale in Oct., so this has just served as further impetus to sort, cull, get rid of...
Today I...
prepped and froze 8 qts of peaches
eliminated 4 boxes from our basement storage
culled out and rearranged my dishes
did a little prep for my Oct garage sale
made bacon ranch pasta salad for a potluck
prepped and then led a meeting
and even took a shower
How's that for a productive day? :-)
The sun is shining for the first time in days and days, and it seems all of us in Colorado are grateful for it - even the rainforest girl. Fall's approach with it's cooler weather, the changing of the leaves, and the cleaning out of the garden is the perfect time to hit these indoor projects. I hope to get lots cleaned out and ready for my garage sale. I hope to get rid of stuff. I hope to let go of some things.
Hard work, but it needs to be done!
