Hi again, another simple question. With Stomy approaching his first birthday (November 9), I find myself with a plethora of supplies. Where do I store them? Although I take anything I can't use to my Ostomy group, I do use my monthly allowance--and never reach the limit. Nevertheless, I have a bureau full of supplies, and half my linen closet. This stuff is taking over my knitting stash! Before you all give me your usual great advice and solutions, please know that I live in a climate where we can lose power and the ability to travel (due to the snow), for weeks. So it is imperative that I have at least a month's supply on hand at all times. Ok, having that stored, I'm drowning in supplies. I am hardly complaining, it is wonderful to have a variety on hand...but where do you put all this stuff?
