And what that really means, is that I'm going to be moving furniture around.
I don't know what possessed me this morning, but I decided I wanted a bit of a change. With me, that usually entails moving furniture. The above photo shows what my breakfast bay looked like before the change. We typically eat all our meals here and I usually have my morning coffee at the table as well. The problem is, the table against the far wall ends up being a catch all for everything from library books to mail.
So I moved everything out of the kitchen, rolled up the rug, took the curtains down to wash, and started cleaning. Windows got a good Windex, the floor got a good scrubbing, and I even wiped down the walls. The house smells nice and Febrezey fresh.
I've always wanted a sunroom. But, with the economy the way it is, this isn't the time to be putting on an addition. So, I'm making lemonade. The only thing I purchased for my change of scenery was the bookshelf; which my husband put together for me this evening.
Going forward, we'll just eat our meals in the formal dining room and I now have my little sunroom. Down the road, if we miss the casual atmosphere of the breakfast bay, I'll just move things back around.
Joy in unexpected motivation and a little change of scenery.
