I haven't yet -- but it's on my to-do list for summer. I need to reorganize the mud room and the "office" -- right now, they're both just repositories for assorted not-sure-what-to-do-with-this junk. <*sighs*>

Oh, my -- lots. But the ones that I actually use are: TV, "cable" box, CD player, and the window A/C in the bedroom.

As we had only a few snow days this year I have more time off than in the past 15 - 20 years! The first week in July I'll be in PEI, my first trip there. Then home and tutoring through mid August. After tutoring ends I'll have one week before starting the new school year & will be spending that time on a nearby lake with family.
