OUR NEW HOME
When Debbie and I moved into the new house, we made a pledge to keep things organized, especially in the closets. This was something Tara and I could never manage, and it carried over to me when I lived alone. So we decided to spend some money and get some real good wooden closet organizers. I said just pick out a day and we can go, so we ended up going Wednesday night. Debbie wanted to get the stuff we had stacked in boxes out of the middle of the floor and put away. I do confess this wasn't my favorite project, and I could probably walk around the boxes forever. We got a late start on Wednesday night, due to the snow and sleet, but did manage to get to one place. The one we looked at was beautiful. It had a really nice oak finish and was polished to a shine. That was the assembled one. The one we would buy came in what seemed to me to be a hundred pieces and was heavy. And the box was large. I don't think we could fit it in the SUV. We would have to have it delivered. Though it was expensive it seemed to be worth it. We almost got it, but decided to look at a few more places.
