Day 5 – 40 Bags in 40 Days

This picture doesn’t really do this small area justice. This is simply where my hot water heater lives. It’s a closet with a light and that’s about it. We recently took some left over wood and made shelves in the space so that I could store our bulk items from Costco. One shelve didn’t do so well when I tried to move it, hence the whole in the drywall.

I also hide presents in this room so my stash of gift bags have found a home here as well. Those two bags are filled with lots of smaller bags and tissue paper.

As you can see stuff just kind of gets thrown in here. It’s a great place to keep things out of sight, out of mind. I normally forget that I have food in here and I buy even more during the next visit. Underneath all those bags are a few boxes of toys that we have had since my first daughter was a baby. You know the 6 year old!!! I saved them for the next baby but we never took them out to get played with so now they are going to Goodwill or Freecycle.

We simply removed those boxes and hung up the gift bags and wrapping on a hook to get it off the floor. Now I have enough space for a laundry sorting area! Which will make my laundry couch very happy! Maybe I can get rid of it too.

    Firebird
    really liked it
    Firebird is a solid dark romantasy read. You have dragon-shifter political leaders of Rome. A witch who I don’t think we have seen the full extent of her power yet. There were so many little side stories told that I believe our FMC will ...
    Sunrise on the Reaping
    it was amazing
    Oh Haymich, my heart is shattered for you. This was the perfect bridge between The Ballard of Songbirds and Snakes and Catching Fire. Linking the wickedness of The Hunger Games with the victors who came together to end them. If Suzanne C...
    Some Like It Scot
    liked it
    This was a sweet romance read. I really enjoyed the audiobook narrators (Joshua Manning and Stina Nielsen). I don’t usually read books that fall into the religious category, but I’m a sucker for Scots and Irishman so that is why I wanted...
    My Demon Hunter
    really liked it
    I am thoroughly enjoying the Hell Bent series. My Demon Hunter was even better than My Funny Demon Valentine. I’m a sucker for demonology stories, and these are filled with all kinds of interesting characters. This one features a plus-si...
