I literally needed a manure scoop to get in the room, so I started there. Quickly, I realized that the problems with the room and the source of the clutter and garbage were:
- Poor arrangement making everything too difficult to use
- Too many wires puddled under the desk making sweeping improbable
- Poor view adding to a depressing atmosphere
- Too much stuff in this small room.
Now that everything is back into the room, which is still too small, I have a view of my patio and farm which will certainly improve the ambiance. The wires are hidden. Clutter is abated.
I might be able to work on Monday.
Perhaps, I'll even blog more.
Now, for the kitchen.

You completed a room! Congratulations, you won!
In my defense, I've partnered myself with a paid geek to revamp & update MrZ's office technology while he's away in New Zealand. All day yesterday, and hopefully only a half day today, then an unrelated all-day trip Monday, and I'll be back in the running for Domestic High Priestess on Tuesday.
Isn't your office the room with the fabulously colorful home-sewn curtains?
I'll be with you in spirit as you tackle the kitchen -- I think that's one of the most gratifying rooms to whip into shape!
Good for you! The cathartic aftermath of a cleaned space....ahh! I have convinced my family that I love that feeling so much that I purposely let the clutter build up over the months so I can experience it fully again! Ha!
Awesome! I have so much de-cluttering to do here.
Okay, now I must declutter. Though I could declutter til the cows come home and I still wouldn't have a view of anything but tree tops and sky from this desk. (What kind of dingbats design a big back room with all the windows four feet plus above the floor?)
