Rearranging Furniture...Turning Things Around!


I decided to rearrange my living room today. This meant some heavy lifting. Thank God for my husband who was totally up to the task!

Do you ever just want to turn things around? Well, that is what I wanted to do today. So I moved all the furniture that was at the back of my living room, to the front, and vice versa.

I got rid of an old couch that I hated...seriously, I just tossed it! It was quite heavy, (I will be sore tonight from all the lifting); and hubby and I were out of breath by the time we had it loaded in the back of his truck. We had to take the legs off of this monstrosity to get it out through the front door. And, for the life of me, I can't remember why I wanted it in the first place.

We moved the other pieces of furniture around and this gave a very "open" feel to our living room. I love it! Change is so good sometimes!

My computer/writing room is freshly painted and I have both my laptop and desk top computers in it, along with my printer. Some new curtains, a rug and a few pictures will finish it off nicely. Hubby calls it "NASA Central" and I love it!

Change is often a needful thing. Sometimes we have to turn things around in our lives. Maybe even toss out the things that aren't working for us. And I don't mean just the furniture.

Sometimes a change, however small, can lift our spirits and give us a new outlook on life...and totally turn things around for us!

  1. Hey Kat, Nasa central looks cool. Is there a button you press and hubby comes in with some tea? I like the way you've adjusted the table so you can peer out of the window. Good idea.

    Change is often good as it makes 'the place' more interesting so well done. Now about the couch, we need a new one so could hubby drop it off for me? Shouldn't cost him more than about $1,000 in fuel but it'll be worth it.

    We spent a whole weekend emptying our loft of what was quite frankly, rubbish. Next day my daughter arrived with her and her boyfriends stuff and filled it up again. Kids! Loads of hugs and keep the pictures and blog coming. Mart
