The Office
No I’m not talking about the sitcom but our office. Maybe a better name would be the black hole, tornado alley or the abyss. This room is going to be the haven for our sweet baby come August. However first thing’s first. We have to clean it out. Completely. This room has been the plank in my eye, the rock in my shoe, the pea under my mattress. It’s the place we throw stuff when company comes and then promptly shut the door, kind of like the Friends episode where Chandler finds out about Monica’s secret junk closet.
Not many people have laid eyes on this room but those who have all have reacted much the same. Eyes glaze over. Mouths may drop. Exclamations include Wow! Whoa! What a headache! It’s not that bad. Snickers and sometime all out laughter.
My goal is to have it completely cleaned out (except for the elliptical) by the end of May and painted. The thing is…I’m not planning on painting so I may have to throw a painting party. Anyhoo, I want to mark my progress and share the process so I can see just how far we’ve come by August.
Well here’s the before pictures…brace yourself!
