At least two here are from the South, hope that doesn't make y'all think we are really messy down here. We are just have different priorities...we are trying our best to stay cool for one thing. <br />Thank you so much Maggie for the birthday wishes and for the give away gift. Looking forward to using those DIY products to clean!

I find that playing Michael Buble in the background also helps. I have not yet done too much with mine except perhaps make it a bit more of a mess, as we have yet another YARD SALE TOMORROW. But then I hope to get my tables back and really start tackling it! I will feel such a relief and sense of freedom once everything is back in place.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6985831825771206913.post-25329907489048965692010-07-11T22:20:22.692-04:002010-07-11T22:20:22.692-04:00I would love to have a basement!!!

Why is it, the basement seems to become a CatchAll...hmmm...these old houses we choose to live in are always full of surprises like those nasty spiders and heaven knows what else. Have fun. I will not be participating but will sure enjoy watching the rest of your challenged CatchAllOrganizers. <br /> <br />A note for your hubby...Bill uses a mix of 5 different clover seed that we put together ourselves at the feed store. They also have a Big Buck Biologic and Antler King that produce large racks if he is more than a meat hunter. There are tons of things out there but the 5 Clover Mix works best here in WI. for our zone 3 area...seven (7) lbs. covers an acre...good luck to him.<br />Good luck to you with your mighty projects. You have more energy than I.<br />BlessYourHeartsDarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16642092433299872708noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6985831825771206913.post-68217816901217615432010-07-11T10:27:14.925-04:002010-07-11T10:27:14.925-04:00Just found your blog!

Who knows this may be the beginning of a cleansing process...not for my basement, but for me...hmmmm. <br />I actually have a basement and an upstairs bedroom that is well...organized chaos. They are actually lands of treasure. I do have some new shelves in the upstairs *workroom*...I am making some head way up there. Bye, I'll be back later! If I make it out of the basement!!

I am a scaredy cat! There I said it and now I feel better. I DO NOT go into our basement, EVER. Well o.k. maybe sometimes but only with D. at my side and only if I really have to! It's not horrible, it's just a Michigan basement and well I can't tell you how afraid I am of spiders and whatever else might lurk in a basement. I'm pretty sure this has something to do with the fact that when I was a kid we had a basement something like it and my older (not nice then) brother locked be down there. OMG I couldn't have been more scared! So I wish I could play along but D. is not having any plans of himself cleaning it so I can take pictures! Have fun and good luck getting your space back...
