Wasn't me, I'm not allowed.

I haven't been moving ANYTHING. I swear. 

The sewing room is about 85% cleared out of all sewing things. The space that was the closet (In 1980, it hasn't been the closet since before we lived here.) still has the shelves, full of totes and pattern drawer in it. There are totes in my front room, there are totes in my family room, there are totes in my bedroom. I have a LOT of stuff. 

My mom is living in the room until April when she goes to WA to play with Moga and Matey. Then we'll get all the rest of the stuff out and paint and decorate (maybe) and Jr. will FINALLY have her OWN room!! Forget a countdown to Christmas she's counting the minutes until the room is HERS. 

Several bookshelves have moved, and then moved again. Giant cupboards moved via ElCid and a friend. A desk moved, another is scheduled to move. My machines now live in my bedroom.

The slightly sad thing is that a lot of this will move again, once the clown car is finished it will vacate the garage and all the sewing stuff will live in there. Someday it will be finished and have a climate control system. And then, someday I'll have a space to sew in again.  

It's been a long couple of weeks and while deciding to quit work early was hard and upsetting to my client it was definitely the best decision. There has been SO much dust flying everywhere I'm all stuffed up and can't hardly breathe. I'm just hoping the end result will be easier to live with!

Yeah, no Christmas goodies for You AnWanna. I moved more things yesterday than I did in my last move - at least my muscles think so! I created a base for my bed from food storage, which I inventoried first - the list is taped to one of the outermost boxes ;-} and am now trying to make sense of the "best" arrangement for the stuff I brought. The printer is on its way OUT. Too big. First executive decision ;-Þ
Weyerhauser table out of the dining/family room makes a Big visual difference. Clearing the last of the sewing related items out of that area today - mebbe - depends on your mama! getting in gear. Ddonn is Amazing
