a clean start

today.....

the mr. and i cleaned up, packed up, and shipped out (to our parents house)

boxes of decorations and mostly stuff we don't need

basically we spent the day spring cleaning our apartment

plus add 10 loads of laundry to that day = a hard working day for the barfuss family

it was just what we needed

we have a new fresh apartment for the new fresh year

it might not look like much but lets be honest....

you couldn't really walk into our second room

now it is all put together to make the perfect crafting room

(plus a bike storage room)

thanks parents for letting us store all of our extra junk at your place

our sanity thanks you

after dropping off our things the mr. and i put on our jazz jerseys 

sat in our clean family room

folded some laundry 

and enjoyed the first of 2012

how grateful i am for my mr.

for putting up with my need to clean

sometimes when you are sad cleaning sure makes things better (at least for me it does!)

so here is to 2012

and hopefully at good jazz season

what did you do on your day off?
