projects

The last time I blogged, I admitted that I hadn't done any major projects around the house yet this summer. So, when I finally got around to defrosting and cleaning out my freezer, which has been on my list for at least a year, I had to take some photo documentation. I had to have proof that I have actually accomplished something this summer.

Freezer with garbage can full of ice

Empty Freezer (Pretty amazing!)

Fully stocked again.

The whole time this has been on my list of things to do, I would go through a cycle of trying to eat as much food out of the freezer so there wouldn't be so much to empty out and put back in. We would get to a certain point where we really needed to stock up on food, and I knew I didn't have time to clean out the freezer, so we would fill it up again. Then I would mentally put off the chore until the freezer was more empty. This cycle went on and on several times. About a month ago I told myself that we were not buying ANYTHING that goes in the freezer, not even ice cream :( , until I have cleaned it out. And with summer here, I have no excuse (last summer it was just too hot, but this month we have had some really cool days).
SO, I got it done, threw out a bunch of old food and our freezer was nearly empty! A couple of days ago, we went to Costco and got all of our favorites to fill it up again.

Sorry this post is so boring. I promise I won't blog about all of my projects, only a select few!
