Ryan and I are staying in town this weekend. It is our first holiday that we aren’t spending with one of our families. It’s a little weird, because it feels like just a normal weekend. Obviously we miss seeing family, but it’s good to have a weekend to just chill out. It feels like we’ve been running a lot lately.

I’m working on cleaning up some clutter in one of our closets today…seeing what I can convince myself to toss or give to Goodwill and what I am just not ready to get rid of yet. I want our closets to be put to good use. We don’t have many of them and the ones we have aren’t big, so the space needs to be used intelligently. So far we’ve just been shoving stuff in them, and that’s not effective.

God, our life is exciting. We sit at home and organize stuff. I know you are on the edge of your seat waiting to see what we do next. The project for this afternoon is to get the grill out of the corner it’s been sitting in all winter. It will be a challenge because there’s about an inch to an inch and a half of ice holding the grill and the grill cover in place (the temps have been in the 40s during the day, but the corner doesn’t get much sun so it hasn’t thawed out). My idea is to get an extension cord and the hair dryer out there. Ryan seems skeptical that that will work. Whatever way we do it, it’s coming out today because we WILL GRILL FOR DINNER, DANGIT! Grilling makes it feel like spring is actually here, even if the temps don’t get above 45.

Well, I think we are off to do some grocery shopping. Happy Easter, everyone!
