Current Location: Dad's house, Rio Linda
Today I began working on the pile of (mostly crafting) stuff in front of the dresser. I emptied two boxes that were full of bedding (because I figure they'd be emptied soon anyway, once I get this stuff out of the way of the bed). One now holds craft supplies (wooden beads, fake flowers, interfacing, electrical wires, a box of rocks. . .), while the other is for "projects" (jeans that need mending, thrifted clothes with no buttons, old Steampunk Things of the Week I never finished, white socks in need of some color, materials for a Halloween costume that never got made. . .). Tools (button maker, pens, measuring tapes, screwdrivers. . .) went into drawers which already held art and office supplies (tape, rulers, highlighters, staplers, crayons. . .). So everything is still a bit jumbled and could use more organization, but it's at least off the floor and somewhat contained. I also found my big bag of nail polishes, which means now I can paint some things that had to be put on hold for a while.
While I was doing that, my dad went over to Judy's house to pick up some stuff for the Halloween party. He came back with a sarcophagus and a life-sized butler in the truck bed.
