Bookie Woogie Blog--book reviews done by a dad and his kids

Our friends the Zenz family were on tv today.  You can see the video below.

Their book review blog is great.  They talk about different books they have read and even review some of the books authors.  You can read that blog here at Bookie Woogie.

Hot Spot #5--piano stuff

Well, I started to work on the office, but that is going to take another whole weekend to get done.  So, I decided to work on organizing my piano materials.  Being a piano teacher, I've accumulated a lot of materials. This has a been a project I've needed to do for quite a while.  I got quite a bit done before our trip out of town this weekend.

Before:

 Piles of notes and piano music

The stack of music that's leaving my house.

My mom and I are planning a BIG garage sale during memorial weekend.  I'm so excited to put all this junk great stuff out that I've been putting aside all year since we moved and see if it sells.  Tom's looking forward to getting it all out of the house too. 

Hot Spot #4--pantry and refrigerator

I cleaned out the frig and wiped it down.  Thankfully I had thoroughly cleaned it out not too long ago, so it wasn't too bad.  But I did have quite a few things that needed to be thrown out.  Here are the before and after.

I worked on my cupboards too since there was pantry food in a few of them.  We really don't have one great place to put everything as far as a pantry goes.  Tom did put some shelves in a closet for me and that is working for the time being.  Here are some pictures of my re-arranged cupboards.

Tomorrow I hope to post the last project hot spot which was anything I wanted to work on.  I chose my office since that is the last room to settle in our house.  I'm hoping to get that done...we'll see.
