Speed post time. I can't believe it's almost midnight. I've been up since 6:30 and haven't napped so I'm surprised by how quickly our evening went by. We were busy bees though tonight and accomplished a lot of the things we wanted to do yesterday but I was too much of a slug to handle. Our living room is almost completely done! We finally hung the shelves we bought over a month ago. In addition, I went through and organized a few of the many, many boxes piled with more stuff than I even knew we had. Seriously, how did we accumulate so much in the 2 years that we've been here? I mean, I shouldn't be that surprised as I continuously shocked myself every time the spring semester ended and I had to pack up my dorm room.
Overall, I'm really happy with the progress made tonight and I can safely say we are about halfway done. Yes, all this work and we're only about halfway but when I set out to do something I go all out. It might take me forever to get started or things may sit in a giant mess for months waiting for me to tackle it again and finish what I started but I do eventually get there--most of the time anyway. There is still a lot to do. There are four more boxes of stuff sitting in the middle of our kitchen waiting for me to siphon through it and there are two more bags in the hallway.
Not to mention the kitchen which no matter how many times I go through and clean it, it somehow manages to become all cluttered and filthy in such a short time. We still have to hang smaller shelves in the hallway, complete the bathroom, begin/finish the bedroom, and finish our office space. Once all that is done I think we will find ourselves quite content and maybe give ourselves a bit of a break (a few months) before tackling the storage unit we have. I'm hopeful that we may actually get a lot of this completed much sooner than I was beginning to expect from ourselves. We're halfway there!!
