Reorganizing, inside and outside

Just in case you wondered what it looks like under the washing machine when your husband pulls it out for the first time in six years...yuck!

"After" is much nicer!!!I don't have "before" pictures of today's other major reorganization projects, but at the very least, my mom will notice the difference from what they looked like when she was here! Laundry areaEntertainment center cabinet I am thoroughly enjoying clearing out clutter, organizing our things, and throwing away all of the extraneous junk that never fails to collect and multiply! In outside business, I planted the aloe plant my dad sent me... Deadheaded my climbing roses and tied up the new canes... (see my white lavender almost ready for harvest?)Planted another flower near the mailbox... I also deadheaded all of my other roses and did a bunch of weeding...yes, I overdid it a bit and am sore for it tonight, but I am encouraged by the level of (my physical) improvement that I am seeing! The kids stayed busy today with their usual pursuits...here is David in the robot costume he built (and he even asked permission before he got out the supplies, and cleaned everything up after he was done -- yay David!)
