clean dirty clean

I had the house pretty clean a couple weeks ago, but it's on the messy side again. I got excited to do printmaking after taking the class, so there are art supplies all over the dining room table. Two steps that need to happen: I need to haul the art supplies into my "office" (spare bedroom), and I need to tidy up the office to the state where I could actually DO projects at my desk.

My brother is doing some remodeling, and he's getting rid of two big bookcases, so I scored those. They are currently in the carport while I figure out where to put them and do the necessary tidying so that they can be positioned into their new spots. My dad and brother will have to move them for me because they are so big. I'm looking forward to finally having enough space for ALL my books and ALL of T's books. Right now our shelves are pretty crammed, and I have stacks of books on the floor of my office.

It's actually happening

well, the renovation on our apartment is happening sometime early next week. My room isn't all that effected by it, though I'm still going to have to move a bunch of stuff out of my room. I'm going to finally get to put my current "book shelf" (which is really just part of a decorative type shelf that someone was throwing away 2 years ago..) on the curb. The tall book shelf from the living room/joan's room will go in my room. I'm nervous it wont be enough room for all of my books. that's hardly a problem I guess.

Tomorrow and Thursday we'll be packing up the kitchen and bathroom. It'll be a pain but SO BEAUTIFUL when it's done.

We saw a finished version of the re-do on the 1st floor today. Helloo totally tiled bathroom & granite counters & stainless steel appliances in the kitchen.
Good-bye kitchen with absolutely no counter space, no cabinets and crappy floors. peace out ancient floor tiles and just painted plater bathroom walls.....
