Meet our shed!
It’s big. It’s solid. It’s spacious! It’s OURS!
And, look, it has two doors…but, why? Maybe the former owners went to a two-for-one sale at Home Depot.
And, it’s a mess!
But, in our defense, we moved into our house in January, right in the midst of a cold, nasty, snow-drifting blizzard. It was so cold outside. We were so tired. And, we were so eager to get the important stuff into our house that we literally piled stuff,haphazardly, in the shed.
It bugged me and bugged me and bugged me, all winter long. I HAD to get that shed organized!
And, that’s exactly what we did, today.
That’s my Sweet P, Peter. Smiling, as always!
This is me. I’m smiling, too, because I’m so happy to be cleaning and organizing our big, beautiful shed! What a mess, huh? Sometimes, you have to make things worse before they can get better.
Three hours later…
Looking good!
Not bad, but it’s not finished, yet. Tomorrow I will finish organizing and grouping together all like items, such as gardening products, tools, etc., into containers. And then, the final touch: Labels. I love labels!! By the way, the big black shelves are from Costco, $24.97, each. They are super strong and snap together in about five minutes. A well-spent $75.
We were able to accomplish all this, thanks to our consultant, our guiding light, our savvy supervisor, Cookie. Thanks, Boss!
Coming next week: Project New Fence!
Great shed!! And your yard will be gorgeous before you know it! Lots of potential there!
Hi, Lois,
Thanks, for the good thoughts! We are working really hard to make our house pretty and inviting. We have a big problem with the soil in our neighbourhood–there’s only about two inches of good soil on top of a deep sandy base. So, all the lawns are brown–dead, in fact. We raked the front lawn, today and it’s all dirt with weeds–it’s very sad-looking. So, we spread this new “coated” seed, which is supposed to hold water and germinate more quickly than regular seed…fingers crossed! I’m going to take lots of before and after photos as we work on the landscaping. I still have lots and lots left to do inside, too, but there’s only so much time and money. It’s all fun, though! Have a happy week and enjoy the sunshine!! Gloria 🙂
