Very Late Spring Cleaning

So we've been spending the last couple of weekends cleaning out all of the excessive material parts of our lives. This is generally good practice to do every spring, however this year we've waited until the late summer, pressured by the oncoming Kaitlyn.

Through this rushed exodus of useless items we've come to realise a few things

• Most of the crap is mine and is either a computer related item or toy related
  
• It is absolutely amazing how long you can live without previously thought of as essential items
• Rooms echo when they have less stuff in them.
• Boxes, why do I keep them? Really do i need to keep that old box that our router came in?
• It feels good to streamline your stuff. Less clutter is an awesome thing
• You cannot donate old computer monitors... you can only send them off for recycling
• Computer stuff becomes obsolete so quickly. What am I meant to do with a 20 GB HDD when something 10 times the capacity now average?

So Kaitlyn's room is pretty much functional now. It's not real kiddy like yet, but we can now say we are ready for her. A good feeling. So come on Kaitlyn, I can't wait to meet you... and now we are ready.
