Unpacking... still.

This weekend I finally made a fairly good sized dent in the unpacking disaster that was the upstairs hallway.

Before I continue there are two things that need to be said: 1. I am a girl, therefore, I have a lot of clothes, 2. I am a girl with a shopping addiction, therfore, I have an obscene amount of clothes, and 3. I am a girl with a shopping addiction who hates to get rid of clothes, therefore, I have a ridiculously obscene amount of clothes.

I had been trying to unpacking my clothes and soon the entire upstairs was a conglomeration of multiple piles of clothes. I figured if I was going to do this, I was going to do it right and make sure that everything was organized. Sadly, I haven't had a lot of time on my hands lately, so the upstairs has been a danger-zone of hazardous clothing for weeks. This weekend I changed that!

The upstairs is still in various stages of unpacked, but now I have all my clothes put away and an entire bin of clothes to sell and donate. This is an extraordinary feat! I don't like to throw away clothes that still fit me because the way fashion goes, you never know when something will be "in" again! I did it though, I weeded through it all and am sadly parting with several outfits.

When I finally get my computer and office set up I will post pictures of how amazing this closet is. It is basically the closet of my dreams. A few more shelves and I will be a happy, happy camper.

I also started to unpack some of our books and hopefully we will soon have the entire upstairs landing/our book-nook, a mecca of all of our favorite books.

So, three weeks of unpacking and living at Winifred down... many more to go! Hopefully we get a bunch more unpacked before next week when we are having a garage sale!
