Our living room and BBB’s baby room look like a tornado just hit them. It’s because in our living room, we’re trying to get rid of a whole bunch of old receipts, bills, etc. that are no longer needed. I got us a nifty heavy-duty paper shredder (that also shreds credit cards and cds), so for the past week or so, I’ve been busy putting stuff into it to shred. Four big trash bags of shredded paper later, I still don’t feel like I’ve made a dent in our hoarded computer room (which will be BBB’s room). This is ridiculous.

On top of that, we still have to finish decorating both recently renovated bathrooms with some awesome chrome accessories. That will come in due time, but they’re not my priority right now. My priority is to get BBB’s room emptied out so we can start painting and designing the room, and to get all this old filing junk cleaned up and organized. I want to turn the other bedroom into an office/crafts area, with a fouton for guests whenever someone stays over. That will take some time. Thankfully, Dave and I will both be on “maternity” leave after the baby gets here, so I’ll have a good chunk of time to clean house, at least.

This all sounds fascinating, I know. To keep y’all busy while I ramble on, check out Bean’s new design. I drew the duck myself!
