More redesign thots...

susandennisThe current desk and credenza are stuffed to the gills. All of the paper - except maybe 4 small folders worth - can go downstairs to the storage unit and wait for the IRS if they ever want to audit.
Most of the gadgetry will get a new home.
But, the office supplies are the problem. I have office supply issues. I inherited them from my mother. I am an office supply hoarder. If I used a post it note a day from now until the turn of the next century, I know I would still have a pile left over. Pens and pencils and clips and tape and notepads and note books and holymotherofgod.
When I started the original makeover - lo those many years ago (makeover story), I got rid of 89 tons of shit. I feel like this little project alone is going to require getting rid of half of that same amount. I think I'm going to go ahead and get it started. If something happens and I don't do this redesign, at least I will have had a nice purge.
Tomorrow, I'll go down to the storage area and bring up those big plastic covered tubs that I also hoard.
I did move the webcam. It will take some getting used to - the view is so different. But the spot is good. I'll get Sheri's handyman to anchor it down and maybe even drill holes in the cabinet it's closest to, to hide the cables!
Next up - besides the purge - is to organize/transfer/set up the netbook to replace the CPU that is my 'faux' server.
Even if it does not happen all the way, this project is a good project at a good time for me to do it. Nice.
