Some of you know that over the last month or so, I have been very focused on decluttering, organizing, and cleaning the house. I finally feel like I can dig out from under the craziness left over from Emerson's birth now that the days are getting longer and my S.A.D. has subsided. I started in the back hallway and am slowly making my way through the house. I'm making some great progress, getting rid of lots of things and hopefully making some new (good) habits along the way. To force myself to keep moving forward, I invited my Mom's Club over to work on a sewing service project we are doing. In order to do that, I knew I needed to get my sewing space cleaned up. There is still way too much stuff in the room, but it is clean and I am able to work in there and to have other people over without being embarrassed.
Here are my before pictures of the room:
and here is what it looks like today:
To celebrate getting all of that hard work done, I am allowing myself some time to play and get some of my backlog of projects finished. Today, I finished the rest of the first chapter of Emerson's Early School of Life book. I had done page one and two a few months back and this morning I finished pages 3, 4, and 5. Page 6 will be a pocket page to hold paperwork.
