33 years

October 24 was our 33rd anniversary. That's more years living with Clyde than I did with my parents! I still love and like Clyde! We went to the temple and to dinner at the Harvest Room at Thanksgiving point. That place is an undiscovered gem! not too busy, quiet, and the most tender steak ever! and the rest of the food was delicious too. For my gift to Clyde and to ME, I stayed home from work and did something I really wanted to do - I cleaned and organized the den. It had kind of become a huge dumping ground since I began full time work two years ago and then a lot of my time was directed at planning three weddings for KC, Nicole and Michelle. No excuse I know but it was messy. I tossed old computer stuff, papers, made piles for shredding, and filed tons of papers off my desk. A filing cabinet is so great. Clyde purchased a new large clock for the den and we hung more photos of Germany. I had wanted Clyde to help me do the den for a long time but he just did not want to get into it like it needed. So 5 hours later, it looked pretty good. I surprised him with my efforts. Here's a few photos to prove it.





























Less is really more- more efficient, more space, more peace, more freedom from stress. I like it this way.

I am jealous. If only our office was so nice and neat. Great job, and what a great anniversary present. I'd take that over flowers any day.
