Fall clean-up

with this new job of mine I never really know what day of the week I get a day off my supervisor says she has a system. huh?

well I had today off and guess how I spent it going to the dump.  It’s all good my truck has been loaded since Monday. I had planned on going Monday but I woke up to sounds of pitter patter out side my window. Out in the small town your taking your sanity to a new level trying to get around on muddy slipper roads at the dump.

So I put this job off until today.

Have a Great Day!

Last Day of School !! Yipeee !!

This coming week is 'Final's Week' at the college and then summer break for me. I'm so excited!  I have a few weeks before the High School is out for their summer break, The last thing I thought I would be doing is watching my grandson this summer.

Don't get me wrong I love watching them, we play outside, we watch old cartoons, we plays games, and oh the toys! toys! toys!, but I had a lot of things on my list I was hoping to get done around my little Colorado Cottage in the next couple of weeks.  Oh well it's all good. Their only this age for a short time

 

You Have a Great Day!  Colo Junkett

Getting My Garage Back!!!

It may not seem like a big deal to some, but my journey to my little Colorado cottage has
taken me a little longer than I thought to finally get through my STUFF!!
I'm still in the unpacking stage ( I've been here for 6 months!!!) it is so hard to let go of some of my treasures that I have been hauling with me for the past 15 years.


I've always been a collector, but when my husband died, I decided I really can't be moving all my stuff.. and the girl's stuff too. As they get older, there is a lot that I don't need to have a around any more.... you know like all the must have toys and books that over whelmed the house starting when our angel turned one! I've moved from a 2000 sq ft house to a 1200 sq ft house and then to my cottage. It's a 900 sq ft house. Whew!!! thank goodness I have a large garage with a loft! But downsizing is a must!

The shelve don't look like much, but they have been a godsend to help me organize the piles of boxes that where in this garage.

It's a slow process sorting through it all, but I'm working on getting a yard sale going soon I'll let you know how it went.



Have a Great
