as of the past few days....the front hall closet, which is small, has been cleaned out, pencil scribbles Magically Erased, repainted (thanks to the help of a friend) and ready for more practical use!!!

oh, yes! The groundhog in PA will be up bright and early. I plan to sleep in and catch his results online later.

the garage wall is painted, and new shelves are up! So, today, I found pencil scribbling in the hall closet. That tells you how often I clean out the closet!

primer is going on the garage walls. The front porch looks like Sanford and Son moved to the Midwest, but STUFF is being sorted, and redirected!!!!!

COTG Project update!!! The painters are here!!! ...working on repairing the wall and painting it! I found my old Kodak Instamatic camera from decades ago while clearing out the STUFF!!

last Thursday, a week ago, when it was much warmer, a group of my friends decided to head out tonight for a social gathering. Now that the high today has been 29˚ and my knees are aching, wondering if it is...

today is COTG Day #15!!!! The box tower is coming down!!!...to be reorganized on shelving...if we just HAVE to keep them for mailing glass!!! LEGOS are coming in for a wash. Pictures coming soon!!!

Project COTG continues!!! Serious Day #14 was last Thursday. Son and I took things to storage after I had removed and swept out from under and shoved many things from right to left!!!

at this point, I now have an extra week to get 1 and 1/3 garage walls and our hallway ready for repainting!!! Whew! This cold spell these next couple of days will mean getting little stuff done inside!!!

wishing all of you a fun and safe night tonight! Happy New Year as January rushes in once again!
