Last Saturday's snow was so unexpected. It's way too early for snow here, and often when even just flurries are predicted, it turns out that nothing happens anyway. Much to the delight of my children, the couple of inches we got were enough for them to haul out the sleds and snow boards from our unfinished storage room in the basement. This is the same room that houses the boxes of Christmas decorations, other seasonal decorations, the old bunk beds, some miscellaneous tools, etc. While not in total disarray, it's gotten a bit cluttered.
My plan for the day was to decorate the outside of the house for Christmas, and then set the tree up and take care of decorating the inside. The snow, however beautiful it looked coming down, discouraged me from spending time outside wrestling with lights, garland and all that stuff. I don't like cold weather.
So with the extra time I gained from not having to go outside, I used my time wisely and got the unfinished storage room organized. It feels great to have sorted through boxes, rearranged tools and other items, and I even swept the floor! So thank you snow, for helping me organize a space that hadn't been high on my priority list, but needed some attention. I may not like cold weather, but that snow sure was beautiful...
