Well, the office renovation is under way!
I have tossed out 2 bags of rubbish from the office - which totals up to a big bag of rubbish into the wheelie bin outside. And I have also donated my old kettle to the local charity as my new kettle arrived from Fly Buys - how cool is that?
There's 2 more bags I've taken downstairs to clean out this afternoon, and that'll clear more space from the home office.
Meanwhile, in the past few days, I've been going out and looking around for a desk and bookcase at op-shops and discount furniture stores. It's slow-going - as it always is at the beginning - but I'm positive I'll find what I'm looking for over the next three months.
You see, I've given myself three months to clean out the home office completely and fix it up with the two newish pieces so I'm not rushing through it all. You have to be realistic about this kind of thing with cleaning out your place fully.
First it started in my kitchen. I cleaned that out completely and it took me almost a year to get that area of my house working properly. Then, it was my bedroom and bathroom - together - and between those two rooms, I got them working well over another year.
The living room is a work in progress; seeing I use it all the time and it's a high-traffic area.
My garden has been completely gutted and cleared up to the point that it only needs to be maintained every Winter; something I'm really happy with.
Now, the Home Office is the one room which is always in danger of turning into a Junk Room - and this is something I really don't want. So, cleaning it out over the next three months is going to do me good.
The air-conditioner was one of the big things which just had to be cleared out - an then after that, well, it's begun to snowball in the cleaning out process in a slow way, but still, it's been working out for me.
Plus, the Home Office is the last room I've decided to tackle because it's the hardest room on the list.
So, which room is your hardest room you've been putting off? Are you dealing with it right now? Or have you been putting it off like I have?
