Day 57 Joy in the garage

As we hit a record low high for July in Wisconsin, I loved the slightly cooler temperatures and enjoy spending time cleaning and organizing our garage.  We move at the end of February this year and with the weather and teaching, I hadn't dealt with the items in our garage.   I did a basic set up so the kids could get to their toys, we could use our mower, gardening tools, but didn't want to deal with all the bins and totes that needed taking care of.  Before I knew it the warm, humid heat hit and I had no desire to clean and sort in that weather either.  Today, it was time!  It's also amazing how you can loose track of time when you are really getting into doing something.  I had stopped to make dinner for the kids and I, but when I went back to organizing, my favorite part, I had no idea so much time had passed when my daughter came out for the third time wondering if I was ever coming in.  My favorite part was when she said, "Whoa, Mom, now you can tell this actually is a two car garage!"  I'll take that as a complement and am excited to go back to work on a bit more decorating in there tomorrow!  Yes, I actually am typing that I found joy in cleaning my garage...I think it was the progress/accomplishment that did it for me!
