iThis weekend I revamped my home-office/hobby spaces with my wife. | |
iWe have two main rooms we use for those types of things: the | |
ioffice and the "pink" room. The office is larger and has our TV | |
i(wall-mount job) both of our desktops, a couch, bookshelf, and | |
iassorted crap. The pink room, so called because the carpet is | |
ipink, holds a metric butt-ton of yarn, my sewing machine station, | |
iand a closet full of assorted crap. | |
i | |
iI decided I needed more workspace in the pink room to actually do | |
ianything with the sewing machine, so I offered to move one of my | |
ibig tables into there and move my wife's yarn into the office. | |
iThat set off a chain of moving things until I basically took over | |
ithe pink room and she took over the office. The only exception is | |
imy desktop, which powers the TV, has remained in the office. | |
iI have my laptop (this linux box I'm typing on right now) in the | |
ipink room set up with my electronics station! | |
i | |
iThe move of stuff sparked a purge of old crap including all our | |
iCDs and DVDs, about 12 bags of various sizes from luggage to an | |
iold hiking backpack, my Nintendo Power magazines, all my collected | |
icards (baseball mostly), my dad's collection of Harvard & National | |
iLampoon magazines. The list keeps going. | |
i | |
iThe space feels great. I've got room for sewing, electronics, | |
imusic (playing instruments), and my spinning wheel. It's a great | |
ifeeling. | |
