Up too late

So I didn’t post Saturday evening as promised. I didn’t quite get as much accomplished as I had hoped, although it was a good day. Our master bedroom and bathroom were cleared of clutter and I finished going through my clothes and shoes. A nice pile started to go to Goodwill. We also went swimming as a family and had a nice evening together as a family. We drove for a little bit and took a look at how the reconstruction is going from the fires. Some of the houses look almost done, others are just leveled lots and some of those leveled lots are for sale. I can’t imagine needing to rebuild from scratch, yet it could’ve just as easily happened to us, I’m still amazed our complex was unscathed.
So since yesterday didn’t go quite as planned, today I worked some more. I went through the girls’ clothes to make room for the laundry, did the kitchen and dining room and started on the living room, when we decided it was time to go to bed, but now it’s after midnight and I can’t sleep! If I’m still not tired after posting this I’ll get back to work.
Here’s a before shot of my bedroom:
and another:

And here’s after:


Nifty, I can post pictures now. And do you like me new theme. Hubby did that for me, he’s so nice. :)
Looking at the after picture I need to see if I can clear out under my bed, but that’s great storage, I just need a way to hide it. And I decided to take the shoes out of the closet to make room for other things that we don’t access as much. Ok, off to bed or to finish the living room. I’ll post more pics in the next few days. :)

I think I'd love to be able to take a picture of each room of my house and have the pictures be something I'm proud of. I'd have to do a lot of work before I took the pictures. But you have given me a bit of motivation, so thanks!
