Surprise, Surprise!

Well today didn't go quite as I had planned (when does it really).  I awoke to discover our very beloved hermit crab, Shelton, had passed away in the night.  Very upsetting to my nine year old son and myself, if I am being completely honest. 

So I figured it would end up being a bummer, do nothing, last day of vacation.  But to my amazement after I went grocery shopping, I decided to put away the last remaining Christmas items left. . . the wrapping paper.  I keep this under my bed next to the regular wrapping paper.  This lead to a fun declutter project.  I sorted through all the gift bags I have saved (regular and Christmas).  Finally letting go of the horribly ugly ones I push to the side every time I get a bag out.  I discarded over 20 bags!  Although the project wasn't in the kitchen, I felt very happy when I was done.  Now I think I am ready to tackle the pantry tomorrow . . . maybe!
