Sorting and Organizing

Lately life has been hectic... Work has been busy, fraternity board is hectic, volunteer work, and this little guy called Cruz takes up a lot of time. Well finally this week I got to relax a little. I had Novali all week, my parents came to visit and I took some time off work (plus the holiday time off).

One project that has been eluding me is organizing my closet and clothes. Luckily Novali likes helping me do work around the house so on our day home together we worked on building my new organizer. She was a great help and even used the power drill a little (later she helped me changed snow tires on Weather's car and used an impact wrench!). My dad helped wrap up the project when they arrived but I am glad I have more space for my stuff on my side of bedroom now. It also means I am clearing stuff from the closet in Novell's room and giving her more space... As she gets older she will need more and more room...The project also helped me get through some organizing I have been needing to do. This year I have been trying to purge more clothes that don't fit and donate other things that I just don't need. Heather and I both have kept the local second hand stores stocked. I think this winter we will finally donate all the items we have been planning to sell in a garage sale... Which we now realize might never happen.So my side of the room is a whole new place... Hopefully I can keep it that way!
