Slip Sliding Away…….

I hope everyone had a good weekend.

So, I blogged about my “aren’t-I-clever-slide-out-utility-wall” feeling all accomplished and about 20 minutes after hitting “publish” this popped up in my Pinterest feedEnviroholder Sliding Magic Rack

It’s All About Storage – Pantry Makeover Update

Easy Extra Storage

Well, like everyone else I’m (grudgingly) putting my tax information together.

And I’m very happy, and somewhat relieved, to report that Cheltenham Road in its first official year of business (i.e. where that’s all I did) turned a decent profit!fireworks2OK, it’s not a buy-a-yacht-and-develop-a-coke-habit profit but it’s enough to encourage me that I have made the right choice and am going in the right direction.

However, it also made it clear to me that, though I’ve worked hard this year, I need to work harder and definitely smarter.

So that’s the goal for 2013: Nap More!  Work smarter! 

First up – spend less time looking for things.  I need things right-at-hand.
