Relative Something

The early stages of a project can involve a lot of chaos. Before I can get this house fixed up for showing, I’m making quite a mess of it. Last night, with some help that materialized at the last second, we moved some of the bigger pieces of furniture out of a couple of bedrooms. The most important room is the Master Bedroom, so that means we cleared, among other things, the bed out of that room. I don’t know how long this process will take, but for the time being, I’m going to be sleeping on a mattress on the floor in our library room.

Since this all happened really fast, I wasn’t totally prepared for this move. It is one part excitement, and one part discombobulation. It was like spending a night in a hotel. There are sounds in my home on the main floor that I’m not used to sleeping with. Funny, I never notice them during the day.

I’ve made jokes in the past that I’ve turned this place into a bachelor pad since Cyndie moved to Boston. It’s no longer a joke. The library is starting to look like a college dorm room.
