Happy New Year!

 I have not been on my blog for quite some time but hoping to get back to it!

I hope that you all had a nice Christmas and I wish you all a Happy New Year with Blessings of good health for 2023!

I am hoping this will be the year that I get alot of decluttering done.  I need to go through the cabinets and get rid of some stuff as well as the closet. Then the garage and shed needs it come spring.

We are redoing a bathroom and laundry room now.  Back in early fall my washer wasn't spinning out correctly and I got so tired of always having to spin and spin it again that one time I put towels in dryer to wet and burnt the belt up.  So the plan was a new set, but upon moving the washer we saw where the floor had a small hole and was weak back to the bathroom so wall, tub and all came out.  Took awhile to find what we wanted and what would fit and then other pieces weren't in stock.  I do think we have 90 to 95% of it so hoping to get it going.  In the meantime I have ripped carpet out of 2 bedrooms and plan to repaint and get flooring. Have another bedroom to replace flooring but haven't ripped it out yet. That room doesn't get repainted. It is the room granddaughter uses when over and she likes it.  Will all take time since I work.

We had a really cold spell Christmas weekend but today near 60.
