its hard to get motivated when your coffee pot is broken

I really should be working on the house today. This weekend we are moving everything from storage back into the house, which we cleared out when we put it on the market. So now we have to find somewhere to put everything. I love living in s staged house with no clutter. Sigh.

Anyway, I think that MUCH of the stuff we stored is getting thrown away, given away or sold on ebay. If we didn't use it for 3 months, we're taking a good, hard look at whether we need it at all.

Yesterday I cleaned out the attic. Despite nearly passing out from heat exhaustion and being barely able to life my arms, I'm very proud. Particularly of clearing out the boxes that we never unpacked when we moved in. Four years ago! (We're not the only ones with boxes like that, right?)

Today I really should tackle either the shed or the crawl space, but am feeling supremely unmotivated. 90% of my unmotivation has to do with having had ZERO caffeine today. I'm also distracted because I want to get back on track with my 30-Day Shred, due to, ummm, recent events. Guess I'll start with the mountain of laundry and see where the day takes me.

    You are NOT the only one with leftover unpacked boxes! In fact, I have four boxes filled with books…in my living room (hidden behind our couch). We say they’re keeping Max from attacking our other bookshelves or pulling things out of outlets, but let’s get real. Max was born in 2008, we moved into the house in 2006. There is no reason for those boxes to still be there!

    I have boxes full still, but it has only been two months. BUT, when we moved we found 4 boxes in storage that had never been opened in the 3 years we lived in our townhome. You are not alone!
