I finally got myself into the storage room and got Christmas put away.
Before:


After:

Hurray for a clean storage room. If only the stuff inside wouldn't move around when the door is closed :) There really is more stuff in here than anyone needs. If I ever have to move from here I probably wouldn't move most of this stuff. But since I have space and it's fairly organized I'll keep it. I did discover in this process that I'm short on cases of green beans in my food storage.
I realized that there was no mirror in the Teddy Bear room. The one that matches that bedroom set hangs over a dressing table that doesn't fit in the room when the crib is up. I rearranged two walls in the Teddy Bear room and hung the mirror.

I really do love taking care of my home and making it functional and beautiful.
Edgar Guest said it best:
Write it down, when I have perished:
Here is everything I've cherished
That these walls should glow with beauty
Spurred my lagging soul to duty
That there should be gladness here
Kept me toiling, year by year . . .
Every thought and every act
Were to keep this home intact.

Loved the poem by Edgar Guest. Yes, you do love your home and you take great care of it. Organizing that storage room was a nightmare. That should have made you feel really great getting it all organized again.
