Remember THIS???





 

Yep, there it is in all it's glory!  This was the great office purge of Lent2021.  What a hot mess!  It did take me almost all 40 days, although I never do chores or manual labor on Sundays, so there's that.  Oh, and there were those days (quite a few) where the thought of tackling this made me ill, so there's that.

Now, in all honesty my game plan and execution was pretty much a blur...broken up by frequent distractions, Diet Cokes, figuring out meal plans, updating the planner and basically anything that would keep me from working more than a few hours a day. I never enjoyed doing the laundry as much as in that time period.  I'm happy to say that one month in and I was finished!  

I was methodical as far as procedure ~ big carton for trash (boy, I miss the convenience of just tossing something into it from across the room & hitting it every time!) ~ numerous cartons for the thrift stores.  And hubby was a champ delivering those donations for me.

But the real game changer was gathering anything related to "crafting" and moving it into the studio.  Fortunately, there's cabinet space there for the infrequently used paper, stamping, painting, slicing and dicing.  Now this room is all about the business.  Nothing gets left out on the counters or writing table over night ~ everything has a home.

I can't possibly write any more until I show you the "after" pix, so here we go...




 

 


In all honesty, I can't even remember what I donated or threw away.  What does THAT tell you?!

In the meantime, my bedroom closet has also been "Spring cleaned" and seasonal clothing swapped out.

Have you been Spring cleaning? Survived? But there's always something more to do...am I right?

Thanks so much for stopping by for a visit...you know I love your company!

I cannot wait to unpack and move into my new studio/office space in the new house. I am waiting my turn for painting walls. I managed to set up the printer (with canon support....).
