Months ago I wrote about my storage room and how I desperately wanted to clean it out. Well, slowly but surely that’s happening. It’s a little bit disconcerting to Walter and Mimi, who constantly have to look for new hiding places, but I feel good about it. Not that the room looks clean yet. It’s just that now a lot of the boxes are empty and only need to be broken down.
Anyway, I donated four boxes of books to the Friendly Bookstore, which supports our local library, and now I have several boxes ready for Helping Hands, a thrift store that helps people in need. I hauled two of those boxes out to the living room, right next to the front door. The theory was I’d next carry them down to my car. Problem is, I kept finding more stuff to add, so the bottom box has gotten too heavy to carry downstairs. With my back, I have to be really careful.
It looks like I’ll be handling this the way I handled the books. Take an empty box to the car and then carry everything to that box. I need a break, and apparently Walter does too. I had to put the quilt on top or both cats would be exploring–and making a mess of things. The quilt stays, by the way.
So it’s Caturday and cleaning day all rolled into one.
Walter–you are so handsome!! My girls are swooning. 😻

Congratulations on cleaning and organizing, Belinda. You’re inspiring me!
I’m sure your cats love those boxes and will miss them.

I think you’re right…the boxes appear to be their current favorite place to sleep. But they’ll find something else pretty quickly. They always do.

Belinda, we have some cleaning and re-organizing in our future, and this post has inspired us. As for Walter and Mimi, after you are done they can set out to find some new, exciting hiding places.🙂

I plan to create a few–although they’re more creative at finding them than I am!
