Update July 7, 2011

Well I moved everything out of our house well not everything everything but most of it and put it in the garage for later sorting through...(yeah remember that thing I said about this plan and how it will probably sit there for a whole year before I go through it again lets hope I ain't right about it)...Anyways I am glad I set that expectation cause then if I don't end up doing that and actually do what I intend to do...vs what I set myself up for doing...which is to put it off for a year...so my expectation isn't too high and if I beat it then I feel more accomplished....kind of like my mom making her dream life was her being a bag lady...so if she made it more than that she was well off...which is actually a good way to do it set your expectations low so if you get anything more than that expectation you can pat yourself on the back :-)
So anyways I did a flight of the bumble bee dash to get the stuff moved because my friend and her family was heading over for a visit later that day...but ended up coming the next day so I had a little extra time to do stuff and mopped and swept which felt really good...Anyways the house is looking better...Garage not so much...but I promise I will at least go through one box a month (again not setting too high of expectation so if I do more I am doing real good :-) at least thats the plan) Anyways...I just thought I would update you on the progress...I still have a ways to go but its coming along nicely I think...
Anyways I will talk to you all later...
Sincerely,

P.S. I have invested in $4 tubs at Walmart to help sort the things I do want to keep (um yeah not the stuff you probably are thinking...its more like bedding and coats and seasonal clothes) Anyways...I just thought I would add that...the necessities things with having three beds and soon four beds when we get set up for baby that we are going to be in the process of making soon...and have to store 5 peoples winter/summer clothes when seasons change...so yeah thats the game plan at least...and I am trying to keep them minimal as far as how many sheets fitted and not fitted, anyways I am trying to down size really I am...next task at hand is the kids toys again...gotta downsize those quick...they are really out of control...so yeah thats the plan...will be probably just in time for another kids birthday XD but I will get it done soon I hope
