i always had a messy room as a kid

As you can tell, nothing has changed!

It was simple to fix this problem. It was just a matter of putting things away. I'm just lazy and far too often just leave them here instead.

It didn't take long to get to the bottom of the pile. There is still a stack of shorts and capri pants that need to go into storage, but I need to buy another under-bed box ... my summer shoes took over the one I used to use to swap out my pants!

Actually, we could always see the clock from the bed, even with all my clothes towering above it.

So tomorrow or later this week when I buy a new storage box, the last of the pile will be gone. Joey the cat, however, comes and goes as he pleases!

Yesterday, I was thankful for the rehearsal-free evening. True, I had more time to clean. But today, I realized I actually missed singing and seeing my friends from the chorale! Even after that long, long week of rehearsals and concerts ...

I am thankful that I belong to such a great community choir, and for the friends I have made there.
