Well, apart from right now where I am skiving from packing and sorting, I have had a pretty busy day today. I have decided that the time is right to acquire more space and light for myself and my loves (filo and stationery loves obviously).
I have been saying for a while that I would like to have a space where I can sit and plan/journal/be creative, that is just for me and today seems to be the day when a decision has finally been made.
Christopher (my 7-year-old) has been turfed out to the spare room (it's really not a hardship - it means that he now has a bigger room than I do). He had asked to have a desk in his room, and in the small room there just wasn't enough space for his drawers, wardrobe, bed and a good-sized desk, so he now has my mahoosive desk in his new room and is a very happy boy.

No flash - what is that about? Also no DF to tell me how to get the flash to work... |
|
My Christopher's desk, which he is very happy with |
My room is now looking rather bare along the one side, and will also need to be re-arranged so that I don't spend most of my time bashing my head on the sloping walls/ceiling...
|
Empty space... maybe the bed should go back there... |
Obviously, as Christopher now has my desk I need to find a new home for my other babies. They liked their desk and cupboard, but it is time for them to move on...
|
All packed up and ready to go, thankfully most of them are empty so the box isn't too heavy |
|
Are we there yet Mum...? |
I am hoping to be a lucky girl today on eBay, otherwise I will be spending a few hours in IKEA next Saturday trying to find decent new storage for my babies... (DF would be happier with the second option I think as IKEA is only 20 minutes away, if I win the display case on eBay he has 6 hours of driving to do...). Surely 6 hours of driving will be much less painful than a trip round IKEA (which could end up taking nearly the same amount of time) with me and both our boys...
I will be posting pics as my new room is set up - it's very exciting!!!
LJx
How exciting, look forward to seeing it all set up!! :)
ReplyDeleteIt´s even more exciting now as I was a very lucky girl on eBay - woohoo!!!
DeleteDid you bid on the Filofax Display stands then?
DeleteIndeed I did - they will be here (hopefully) this evening :o)
DeleteFilofax Display stands? Need to see that, need to see that... can't wait for a detailed post with lots of photos... LOL
ReplyDeleteThey should be on there way from Germany as I type. Fingers crossed they will be with me in a few hours. DF is under strict instructions to take photos of them packed and ready to go :o)
