We had a tornado warning last night. (No, I'm not referring to the botched rapture...what a joke.) All's well here, despite about a thirty minute session in the basement. Missy read the next chapter of Harry Potter to DJ and Janie. I surfed the internet looking at yarn. Katie was knitting a blanket (in her happy place) with Ricky snuggled in with her, and Dave was upstairs washing dishes and baking cupcakes? I know, I know...strange man.
It wasn't a bad time, but it did make me think of doing something different with the basement though. It is not terribly comfortable down there, although I did have someone drag a deep airbed mattress down there. We have a toy area, but no place for mammas to sit. And, the rug we had on the floor was a loss to a sewer back-up a while back. There is a craft table, but things a little junky around it. Our basement is huge. Our house was once a duplex, now converted into a single family home, and the basement runs the whole house. We really could make the space more user-friendly, and maybe use it for more than toy and stuff storage. And, since we know we will be here until at least August 2012...it may be worth revamping.
