on the move

My 'Scrappy Studio' 


Things i will miss: 
We installed this floor,
Just for my 'Studio'
 I will miss this floor ...
 But the things I WONT miss
by far out number the things i will.

"Life can only be understood backwards; but it must be lived forwards.”
FUTURE DESIGN WALL!
NATURAL LIGHT: SEWING AREA!
... getting super excited about my NEW studio, there is something inspiring about a fresh new 'canvas' ... looking forward to playing here!



~ My sewing area will go: Here>>
One thing i learned: i missed being with the family, 
I like that my new "basement" is on a hill- 
I didn't mind moving out of the basement of my original 'studio' space - As I was always nervous about my fabric, scrapbook papers etc. 'drowning' - despite the basement being "DRY" for years, 
but i just had that feeling ... 
and a good thing too, this past YEAR the OLD basement has flooded FOUR times! 
 ... the list grows of things i WONT MISS
i missed being near the 'computer/office area... 
~ the "Office" area will be across from my sewing area, and we will have the entertainment center, and a small seating area, so i can view my design wall while i ponder the possibilities, watch a movie with the family ...
This will be a combination of the things i love, 
as well as a work in progress ...

GRAND CENTRAL STATION: Pre-Move
Last week 1st ~ super excited to see the grandson, and "his agents" ... 2. Blessed to have the family over for one last family gathering, {Celebrating ONE YR since DH Open Heart Surgery}...  after Mass, 3. during a Thunderstorm, Tornado sirens blaring -  4. my basement started flooding, worse than ever - so, we started bringing up the clean laundry in bags, the totes i'd already packed  ... just when we thought things couldn't get any more crazy -
5. Dear Daughter had an allergic reaction 6.DURING FINALS at K-state - i drove up to move her home ...7. & added her junk to the living room. NOW She is headed to 8. Scotland, while we begin  9. THE MOVE ...  Good stress/Bad stress
= JUST A FEW STRESSORS! 
THE COUNTDOWN IS ON ~ 
THREE MORE DAYS!!!!
LET THE CHAOS BEGIN ... CONTINUE!

3 weeks later, looks very similar ... same place different junk. Its were we put it as we pack. This move is sure taking so much longer! - 1. DOWNSIZING (big moving sale planned! praying weather cooperates) ... 2. Smaller vehicle; could fit SO much in the Suburban! > Moral. Downsize Vehicle AFTER downsizing House/family!
