Nesting?

So you ever get a wild hair and just sort of do something out of character? I've been decluttering and cleaning around here... and pondering rearranging the furniture.

This is not like me. I don't want to do housework much.
And rearrange the furniture??? We have a big assed sectional that I loved when I bought it.

The enchantment wore off a long time ago.

There is only one logical arrangement to put everything in. The room is large, but due to the placement of windows and doors... well,  we really need to replace the furniture.

With smaller stuff. That has more possibilities.

I keep saying, "Won't happen until my dog dies or I get a lot of money."

People who are laid off from their jobs don't generally have money just falling out of their asses, now do they?
The dog will probably die before we get a lot more money....

I don't mind buying used furniture as long as it's in good condition, but I don't need anything else in the house getting dog grease on it.

Maggie rubs up against stuff. She always has. There's a long streak of dog grease along the back of the sofa all the way to the door.

I took my mom and Miss Lyssa to Goodwill on Monday morning. And back in the corner of the store, I found a computer armoire. It wasn't a big huge monstrosity (almost smaller than what I wanted) but it was in good shape and only 40 bucks. I looked at it  opened it up, checked the shelves and decided it would be a good addition to the living room... after subtracting a few things that are taking up more than their fair share of space in there.   :)

So I brought it home, and Matt and I emptied the desk, moved boxes of this and that and took the old desk out. Moved the cabinet in. It looks nice, we can close the doors on it, which helps, and we have a bit more room in the living room now.

I'm in a nesting frenzy... the good start we got in getting cleaned up for the visit from the ancestors sorta lit a fire under me.

Since I got sick during the 1st week of break program, and I told Sunshine that I can work but would prefer the time off for this week, no one has called to ask me if I can work.

I'm certainly not going to call them!

So I have been looking around at all that needs done, and realizing that I already have a really good start.

And writing several posts so that I can't slack off and pretend like I need to blog, taking a break, will get back to it soon.....
