I went into the new and improved sewing room this morning to grab the full trash can before the morning pickup. The room has been swept, dusted, and reorganized and while it can be used for someone to sleep in, mostly it is a space to work in. The only thing needed for a guest to stay is to put away the ironing board next to the bed.

I've parked a few things in my son's room next door, and that is the room I do use as the primary guest room, so I need to think about where those items will go. There is an antique sewing machine in a table intended for eBay that needs cleaning and rewiring before listing. One small three-shelf cabinet was moved from there into the sewing room to hold supplies next to the sewing machines that are now each set on sewing machine tables. The large rectangular table is now laid out with the cutting mats for the rotary cutter.

If my family is ever allowed into the house again they will see a changed place. Moving furniture during quarantine is a therapeutic activity that offers good exercise.
