I decided it was time to finally straighten out the attic. Our attic is the #1 storage location in our house. It is quite large so there is room for almost anything you may need to store. Unfortunately my typical routine is to place something in the attic with the intention of then going up later to sort through it, organize the items and then properly store them. This rarely happens so the attic becomes a messy catch-all for anything and everything.
So, here is the attic after 4 hours or dedicated straightening, sorting and tossing things in the trash. I probably should have taken a before picture so folks could appreciate how much better it looks. Sad, yes very sad. I think I still have many more hours ahead of me before this chore is completed!
Do you see the giant SpongeBob in the corner overseeing things? I won him years ago at the Stratham Fair on the bottle/ring toss game. I don't usually win anything at fairs so I was very proud of myself. I have tried many times to get rid of him but the kids always find out what I am trying to do and demand that SpongeBob stays!

Hanz, is my bed ready yet?
Oh Elizabeth - wait ten more years and see what you have for stuff...I have boxes of clothes, old magazines, parts and pieces of toys, books, books and more books, dishes, pictures, bags of stuffed animals and I found 3 dead bats! This chore will never end!
