The Great Slide Puzzle


Remember those thinker toys called slide puzzles?
There are usuallly 16 spaces for 15 tiles.
or some other matrix with one less tile than spaces.

I have often referred to life as a slide puzzle.
This week I am living it!
Since my job has ended and I only have 6 credits
of school this term, I have time (and no excuses)
to organize!
Yes, the garage, the main living area, and eventually
each of the bedrooms and the laundry room.

It's not as easy as put this here and that there.
NooOOOOoooo.

This stuff is gone through and sorted.
That stuff is moved over here so I can move the shelves over there, THEN, it can be put on them.

For those who have been in my home, the pew is now in the garage and the wooden shelving moved one turn to the left and is on that wall. I was given an old entertainment center and will be receiving a work bench tomorrow. I am creating my "Christy Space". If I were male, it might be referred to as a 'man cave'.

Nonetheless, it's quite a chore! And each time a box or bin is touched, it is gone through.

My goal...to have a place for everything (that is kept) and everything in it's place.

I cannot promise it will stay that way. In fact, I can guarentee it won't.

But at least this huge sliding of the puzzle pieces will be significant and make a big difference.

(YAY! Freecycle! and Good Will)
