Empty cabinets no more . . . .

The process of "re-loading" my kitchen is not super fun.  It's not that I thought it would be a laugh-a-minute, but somehow the idea of a "clean slate" gives you that rare opportunity to get truly organized.  A place for everything.  Everything in it's place. 

Around here, it looks more like this:   I put something away.  Decide it's not exactly where I want it or that I want something else there and move it.

Repeat. 

Repeat again.

My parents have graciously offered to help me with this process and I plan on taking them up on this offer, but I was thinking it might be nice for them to have a path to the bed and bathroom in the guest room when the arrive tomorrow.  And for that to happen, I had to get started on my own.

Of course, that has been easier said and done this week.  The breakfast nook cabinets (where I am relocating all the items from my dining room) just got their shelves installed yesterday.  I got a bit done last night, but today was shot because I was at school all morning and this afternoon, the contractor was working in the kitchen, so putting stuff away was not exactly practical.   I started up again when I got home from band at 9:30, but quite frankly, it's almost 11:30, I have to be up in less than 5 hours for boot camp so I'm ready to call it quits.  

And for the record, we have waaaaay to many dishes.
