Get’er Done Challenge update

With just over 10 days to go, are you getting‘er done?

I checked off my marathon last week, and today checked off my hall closet.  It’s hard to imagine that a family of three could accumulate so many pairs of shoes in six years.  But I guess when one of three’s feet have grown 8 sizes in that time, it is a little more understandable.

For the most part I was pretty good, but there were a couple of pairs of boots that did not meet the “have worn in the last year requirement” (or even the last five) that I did keep, because can you ever have too many pairs of black boots?  I realize that seven pairs might seem excessive, especially the Kiss boots, but they all vary in heel styles and heights, some are short, some are tall, and I am ok with it.

Not on my list but something that I didn’t realize until yesterday that I had been neglecting, was cleaning out my baking cupboard.  For those who know me, know that I only bake once a year (which was yesterday), so why do I have a baking cupboard?  It is was a cupboard filled with delicious intentions, but in all honesty I would rather have another plate of food than have dessert, therefore depriving my family of homemade baked goods.  I am ok with that also, but deep down inside the guilt is too much so I host an annual Christmas bake exchange.

So with one last thing to do on my list, 40 Christmas cards to write, my quarterly accounting package screaming at me, an Open House to host, a Christmas tree to buy and decorate, as well as all the presents to go under said tree…I guess I am just getting started.
