Behold, the fruits of my labors!

I busted my ass yesterday working on my living room, and my ass is feeling it today. It was totally worth it, though, when I walked out there this morning and saw my cozy living room.

Wow for the change. It makes a BIG and beautiful difference.
I have to admit, though, that your pre-clean-up photo is still hundreds-time better than my livingroom, or bedroom or kitchen... *hides away under the rubbish piles*

Yes, but I've only been here since 1974---your family's been in that house since when, 1947?

There's an organizational expert on TV who says there are two kinds of clutter, "memory" clutter---everything has sentimental value, or what I think you guys have: "We might need it later" clutter. After all those years of Soviet shortages, it's no wonder stuff came in and stayed!

Nice work! (And thanks for the pimpage.) I think the Cheer-up-a-thon is going swimmingly.

You're so welcome! There seems to be a leaning toward song-and-dance men.

And for some reason, Yahoo isn't notifying me of about a third of my comments. Wtf?!

That's a very comfy, inviting-looking room! I know it was a ton of work, but so worth it!

Thanks. The smaller table really helps the scale. It feels so much more intimate.
