Reorganized...

whew! I spent the majority of yesterday standing. I'm not used to that. I reorganized our master bedroom and the kitchen. Our bedroom wasn't so bad, really it was just a good cleaning. I still have yet to figure out why some pieces of furniture get collections of junk on them all the time.

The kitchen was a different story. I had a couple of goals for the kitchen: find a new home for the crock pot (I shouldn't have to lift if off a shelf over my head to use it), the "baking" drawers were impossible to find anything in. So, I set off yesterday after lunch to see what I could do. The "baking" drawers I actually did Friday (I think). They are so organized now; no more searching for me! I finally decided to keep the crock pot on the counter (the last thing I wanted was to add more to the counter tops, but it was the only way). I put the cereal dispenser on the end of the breakfast bar and the crock pot to the left of the sink. The red teapot is now in the new "red corner". John made a shadow box for me a couple of months ago (I just hung it a couple of weeks ago). It has the cookie cutters my Mom used when I was little and they are red. I had bought a red tray for the deck table and my Mickey and Minni cookie jar has some red too. Hence, the "red corner" because everything red is in one corner of the kitchen, now the teapot is there too (it just made sense).

Now, the only thing left is finishing the classroom. I still have to finish grading Jesse's math and send everything off to the association, file, and general "go through stuff". I'm hoping I can finish it this week but I just found out last night John will not home for three days, but he for seven. I'm trying not to think, "there goes my clean house". LOL I'm really hoping by Thursday or Friday the only thing I have to work on is SOTW II (no, I still haven't opened the book yet).
