The room is my office (I work at home) and also my sewing space and it is quite crowded with things that I plan "to do something with someday!":) I think some of these things will never get done, so it is time to send some of my treasures to the Salvation Army.<br /><br />Maybe we should do a thing like the kitchen, where we show pictures of our workroom/office?Terryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07251442165883627229noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5089828552519076506.post-6754753760504348992010-04-03T23:12:15.903+10:002010-04-03T23:12:15.903+10:00I was so excited the other day when you said you&#...I was so excited the other day when you said you'd start posting again. I really enjoy your posts and always seem to get some ideas about how to do stuff. After reading your post about potatoes, I finally decided that I *would* put potatoes in that last veggie bed that needed to be planted. (I'd be wavering for a few weeks now and crunch time was on me.) Lets see... I freecycled for canning supplies after reading your posts and got a bunch. I decided on using cinderblocks for my raised beds after seeing your pictures. Even been half a world away, you have influence me a great deal!

It is always nice to have instant and tangible results with one's daily tasks.<br />I have an overflowing craft room which is in urgent need of sorting. It was never properly sorted following our move to our current home nine months ago. This is perhaps a project I should tackle these school holidays, as our older children (8 and 11) could possibly help entertain the younger ones (2 yrs and also an 8 mth old) whilst I sort dangerous little objects. :-)<br />Thanks for the inspiration.<br />Tracy (Brisbane)<br />PS: You asked what everyone was up to today.

We opened the shop for a few hours this morning then treated ourselves to lunch in a neighbouring cafe. It has been grey and rainy all afternoon so we've sleeping and reading. Mum is taking all of us our for dinner == a combined Easter egg! I cannot think when I last had two meals out in one day!<br />Tomorrow The Gardener and I plan to spread fertiliser, mulch and compost. It will be excellent if theis light rain continues overnight and then lifts in the morning.
