BRAIN WORK OUT--

 I do believe I gave my 'brain' a good workout all week!!!

Ordering groceries on line is a 'brain work out in itself'--then the waiting to see if they can find where I do live--our apartment building is 4 stories high--but--it does not sit on main street like other buildings--our parking lot is in the front--our building sits on the back half of the lot--and now--with the new hi-rise apartment complex one building down from us--deliveries can show up there instead of here!!!

but I am very happy to say--that both of the  groceries orders, did make it to right address---

then there was all the cleaning and sorting and re-organizing I did this week--

here is my closet --before photos--of the fabric stash shelves--

looks like an avalanche ready to happen--or an explosion of fabric in the making!! 

and after 2 days of sorting and making decisions on what to 'toss' and what to keep--

here is the after photo--

Much Much better--I might even get inspired to sew now!!!  3 bags of odds and ends went to a neighbor who says she wants to make quilts for her grandchildren!!!

And here is the shelves on the opposite side of this  closet--that holds yarn, wool, cross stitching supplies, and sewing notions--before photo--

I think this mess wanted to fall over--

but look now--

much better and lots better in the organizing of things for me--though after I do this--I often can't remember 'where' the better place is when I need that odd item!!!

and here is a photo of the top shelf--

that top shelf only needed a bit of cleaning up--and as you can see my clothes hang in the middle of this closet--!!!

I have made it outside each afternoon around 3pm--and walked down to the main street and sat on the bench for 10 minutes in the sunshine--at that time of day--there is very few other tenants around (they are all home taking 'naps'!!)

I did find some fabrics for a couple projects I plan to start next week while I was doing all the sorting--and I nearly have all the embroidery done on another snowman block--#10--should finish him off tomorrow and each evening I have done some hand quilting on the basket flower quilt--so I am still 'stitching' each day!!!

Did you do any organizing this past week????

hugs, di
