Room of Requirement Day 1

Last night I had just an hour or two to get started on tackling the Room of Requirement. I was able clear away enough stuff that I could actually step foot in the room! Woohoo! I felt that was a great accomplishment. Then I got overwhelmed and went on an adventure instead!

This year DD#2, Bethany, is going to start homeschooling 4-year-old Hazel, and 2-year-old Aliza is sure to tag along. To kick-off the preschool year, they took the girls on a “Hot Air Balloon Ride” around the neighborhood. The girls were absolutely thrilled! How could I miss that? It was so much fun watching them.

I was able to get back in the studio by mid-afternoon today. It is still overwhelming. I decided I needed some instant gratification, so I picked the absolutely easiest spot and packed up my Kona Cotton cupboard.

The Kona Cottons were already uniformly folded to fit on the cupboard, so they were easily transferred and they fit very nicely into a nine small U-Haul boxes that I was given (Thanks Sharon!). The big box on top is quilt batting. Another easy thing to pack.

We’re going to need to figure out some logistics on where to put the boxes as they are packed. Our house isn’t that big, so it might take some fancy footwork to find a place for them to sit for a few months.

Anyway, I only had a couple hours, but at least I made a little bit of progress! Yeah me!
