Last weekend was a busy one for us.
Saturday we had the gem expo in the morning then we sold our double bed and it was picked up that afternoon.
Sunday we decided to swap rooms.
The office although at the front of the house had a few things going for it.
The view of the trees. The same tree I took a video of the black cockatoo visit last year.
It was a cooler room. Summer in this house is hella hot and the hottest rooms are the ones at the back. Without ducted bub would for sure sweat it out.
The back room had the wifi and Hubby's wardrobe. The wifi we could move but moving the clothes was the bigger challenge and I didnt want bub disturbed when Hubby was getting ready in the morning.
Feng Shui wise although it's in the career area, it was also in the water element area and bub will be due in Scorpio territory whose element is water so I figured it was a good fit.
Feng shui wise, having rooms at the front of the house isnt exactly ideal with possible noise and disturbance coming from the road. Also the head of bub's cot will be against the wall were the TV will be but at least the bedroom isnt sharing a wall with the bathroom.
Everything considered we decided to go ahead with the room swap.
Good bye front office...
I loved my front office. Loved the nature view and being able to see incoming deliveries while I worked most of all I enjoyed the coolness of the room during summer.
It also fit my office furniture better than the other room but we went ahead with the move regardless and after quite some time later....
We were finally in...
... and the other room was ready for bub.
Have I told you guys we've moved 3 times in the last 4-5 years? The room swap totally reminded of a move and ain't nothing like moving to accentuate ones hoarding tendencies.
Sorting out the new office took more time than the move itself. It also took so much out of me that I was sore for days. I was so concerned about taking the pressure off my sore knee (which isnt sore anymore btw, yay!) that I put all the weight on my other leg.
Lemme just say I'm finally sort of walking ok now. Still wobbly on my feet and a bit dragging a leg behind me but it's getting better.
It was worth it though.
I like having the office in order, which also means the crystals in order.
Then there's the other shelf..
Books, pencils, paints all that stuff.
I have more stuff under the table too 🤦🏻♀️...
Blank canvases, paint, the printer which is now homeless because the cabinet it sat on didn't fit in the room.
It's not really hoarding if I use it all.. eventually.. right? And to be fair those aren't just my crystals it's OUR crystals....
On the plus side!! That's all done and dusted. Hubby moved the extra furniture in the shed, I've got curbside pick up in a few weeks and bub's furniture lined up.
The next thing I need to do is decide if I'm painting a mural in bub's room. Which is a bit tricky since we still havent gone for our ultrasound and I still dont know if we're having a he or a she, or if that even matters because being in the career/water feng shui area my colours are restricted.
Sigh. So much to do and think about and time's a ticking!
Anyone here knows anything about feng shui? Any suggestions? Can you help a sister out? ❤
