I guess you can call it "Spring Cleaning". Dave and I have been deep-cleaning and rearranging the house room by room. We started with our bedroom, since there was so much stuff piled around in there. All our books were on the floor, so we took the Trek shelf out of the computer room and it is now filled with books in our room. Much better. The Trek stuff... well, that is back in storage for now. Yesterday I gave the kitchen a very thorough cleaning- I even dusted the baseboards!! I took a small shelf from the guest room that only had a radio on it, and moved it into the mysterious empty space next to the stove. It now holds all my cookbooks which were formerly stacked there on an old school desk (which is now in the computer room). The kitchen looks much better!
Then, when Dave got home last night, we tackled the computer room. We took EVERYTHING out, vaccumed and dusted, and then started putting things in in their new places. I had used the Arrange-A-Room feature on the Better Homes and Gardens website to create a new layout. I actually created 4 possibles, then we narrowed it down. So, we eliminated one of the tables, and now have both computers on the longer table. AND we are facing the window, so we get a little bit of nature while we compute. Without that second table, it seems like so much more room in here! Also, the futon is now in a position to be pulled out and used if the need arises...it was sort of blocked in before. Today my task is to clean out the closet here in good 'ol computer room and see if I can fit in some of the stuff that used to be on the tables.
It has been a lot of work, but it is so worth it! I almost feel like I have a new house, with everything so clean and all rearranged.
But enough typing- the closet awaits!!

sounds like you've been really busy! It must be nice to have all that space to work with. Of course, you told me about all this before you posted it, but it's still fun to read. I hope you finished your closet!!
