Just remember that corollary to Murphy's law...the first 90% of the work takes the first 90% of the time, and the last 10% of the work takes the other 90% of the time. :) Seriously, I'm sure you'll have your living room as you like it shortly. Meanwhile, I'll be packing for MY cross-town move, in late July...Chuckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03198762158401756973noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14529035.post-46733912036322127772007-06-11T15:40:00.000-05:002007-06-11T15:40:00.000-05:00i totally relate. i have a waist-high stack of br...i totally relate. i have a waist-high stack of broken down boxes in my entry way, and an entire room of packing paper and SO much still to do. i'll be SO happy when my house looks like a house again, with furniture and some sense of organization. *wistful sigh*Erickahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02624706433945857931noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14529035.post-40728749594646873992007-06-11T11:11:00.001-05:002007-06-11T11:11:00.001-05:00I remember what a treat it was when we first moved...I remember what a treat it was when we first moved to Watertown, back in '94, and had boxes and furniture stacked everywhere for a couple of months, and finally clearing out the living room and being able to just plain stretch out again. Such a small thing, but a great pleasure. I absolutely know where you're coming from.Suldoghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07778845367184916684noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14529035.post-77256274387676819952007-06-11T11:11:00.000-05:002007-06-11T11:11:00.000-05:00What a job.

It was very hard to go through some of that stuff--especially the photographs, the Christmas decorations, the keepsakes from when my children were little. But, in the end, we got rid of it all, and sat in an almost empty house for over a year. We had two reclining lawn chairs, a 13" TV, a waterbed, and a refrigerator, washer and dryer in a three bedroom house with a den. Lots of empty space. Good luck to you on getting done by this coming weekend.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11731276173410889180noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14529035.post-80833355403716371432007-06-11T09:30:00.000-05:002007-06-11T09:30:00.000-05:00Here's to functional living rooms!
