What a weekend! It has been a case of packing and boxing and taking trips up to the storage facility. The place closes at 3pm on a Sunday and I was so glad when it finally arrived. But, as busy as I’ve been all weekend, the results are well worth it. I do love a good de-clutter.
I am now waiting for the inevitable question “Where is so and so?” to which the answer is going to be “I packed it.” I’m sure mum can sympathise with that one.
I didn’t take a before shot of my study because it was, frankly, a disgusting pig sty. Even Carmen refused to enter and Mirinda hadn’t been through the door for about two years. Day-z, of course, always follows me everywhere so didn’t really have much choice. So, no, I didn’t take a photo before I cleaned it all up. My main fear was that my camera would get permanently clogged with the thirty five feet of dust that lined everything.
My new study #1
And here it is from the other corner:
My new study #2
The top shelf with nothing on it, is waiting for a load of books from downstairs to vacate the crappy bookcase they’re in and make their way upstairs. Mirinda insisted we only have ‘good’ books on show and not the crime thrillers she loves so much. So, Nicci French, Ruth Rendell, Minette Walters and Clare Francis have been banished to the loneliness of the storage facility while books like Cities of Tomorrow and The Future of Higher Education are ready for any unsuspecting house viewer.
Sadly, it’s all been about the storage this weekend. We did manage to walk up to the castle today (Mirinda went without me yesterday so I could burn the rubbish) but that was about it.
Hopefully tomorrow I’ll be visiting a leper’s colony with Dawn and should have lots more to report.
