Sore. So sore.

Usually when I have a deadline (big boutique at the end of the month) I can't seem to focus on the project at hand. (You know, make a billion things to fill my booth so I can actually pay for the costs of the boutique.) But my work space, it just wasn't cutting it. Imagine a room where a bomb of crafting, scrapbooking, tasseling, reading and computering stuff has exploded. Now times that by ten and you may have a visual of our room. I couldn't stand it anymore. It had to be cleaned. It had to be a space that I could work in.

I had spent the morning complaining to Kem that I should really be doing XYZ but all I wanted to do was project overhaul. Mid-conversation, I wonder why I wasn't going to do it and decided that I could. I'm tough, right? Right?? Fast-forward to me moving all of the furniture myself and cursing my weak little self for not waiting for the muscles to help. Why was everything so heavy? I realized something very important about myself:

Tough I am not, determined I am.

Finally, after hours of moving, removing and moving one more time, stopping for a parent-teacher conference, visiting teaching visit and babysitting for the night oh, and forgetting about a meeting, I figured it out. A new work space that is looking like it might function a lot better than the old one. Feels much better than the bombed room that it was even though it still sports throw up carpet, wood paneling and pink and blue floral wallpaper. The pretty it up part is going to have to wait. I am too sore from moving all that furniture!
So are you wondering where the big reveal pictures are now?? Sorry, no pictures today. Still working on Mission Organization. Need something to look at?? Visit Megity's Handmade and see my primer white mantel! Oh, and some fun Easter tassels too.
