Item #43 and #11

The closet organizer is still not finished, but I added the closet rods to the organizer and start using it. It feels nice to have a place to hang (a surprisingly large amount of) clothing. Our dresser drawers are feeling a little more roomy now. I still haven't cleaned up other than to move the ladder out of the way, so don't mind the mess.

I also spent an afternoon hanging crown moulding in there and checked it off the list. I still need to fill the nail holes, caulk, and paint. There's always more to do.

I also finished installing the baseboard cap in Clara's room. I should have done it months ago. It took all of two hours total to complete single-handedly, including moving furniture and tools. I usually work during Clara's nap, so working in there was not possible. Tom took care of her in our room for the first hour, then took her for a long walk for the second half while Evie napped. The baseboards also need nailholes to be filled, but I will take care of filling and caulking after I have finished the door trim. I like doing things like that all at once rather than spreading it out over multiple days.

Tom has tomorrow off, so I'll see what else I can finally check off the list!

It will feel good to finally have a place to hang your clothing, never mind the space it makes in the dresser. It will also allow you to see what you have available to wear and clean outs of items seldom or never used easier to find rather than them being pushed to the bottom or back of the drawers.

Doing a great job, Sarah, really. Keep the forward momentum rolling.
