The Desk is GONE(ish)!

game room desk if gone (ish) decluttering office at ASlobComesClean.com

A few minutes ago, I headed over to read the rules for the final link-up in the 29 Day Organizing Challenge at Org Junkie.

I was in a rather bad mood that I had to hurry and write a post about an unfinished project before this (crazy and busy) month ends in a few hours.

I stopped reading after I saw #7.  “Your deadline for adding your entry will be March 1st at 3:00 pm PST.”

Ummmm, whew.

Because with selling over 1400 e-books this month and all . . . I’m rather worn out.

And although I spent an hour today doing at least SOMEthing again in there, I was feeling rather irritated to have it be my final post to link up in the Gameroom Saga.

Not that tomorrow’s post will be about a finished room, but I’m hoping I can get a few things done in the morning to make it a little better than it is now.

(Yes, I said 1400 e-books!!  In the first month!!  Wahoo!!)

So what is it that I have to show for today?

The desk is gone(ish).

I decided that at the very least, I’d move the furniture that I have determined must be moved.  Hubby used his big strong muscles to move the TV for me last night, so I had no excuse other than my bad mood. (My all-veggies-all-the-time related bad mood.)

Here’s the new set-up:

Organized?  No.

Decluttered (now that all the Stuffed-Somewhere-Stuff has been unearthed in the moving)?  Not at all

But I seriously love the difference.

And the desk?  I told you.  It’s gone(ish).

Which really means moved out of the line of vision for me to get an idea
of how the space will look.

Smack-dab in front of the door to the garage that we use thirty times a day.

Here’s hoping that this location will remind me to get it all the way out of the house.

A girl can hope, right?

    You can get the desk out the door! I’m cheering for you in Central Texas. 🙂 I can well imagine your frustration, though, on not getting this proposed project farther along since you are posting with a link up. 😛 But, you did make progress.

    Also, I’m impressed with the number of books you sold! I should have bought one myself, but hopefully I will later. 🙂

    So, what DO you use as a desk, then? The kitchen table? The kitchen table has been historically used for paying bills, preparing food, reading, kid’s homework and games. The kitchen table is rife with history. I just wondered a little bit. WOW, and selling all those books: that’s a project! Glad that’s all done!
