So Much For Waiting

So much for waiting until later in the week to attack "Shed Cleanup Project." This morning, after it dawned on me I really should update my business website to mention the new product (oops!), I figured I'd step out to the shed 'just to take a look.' And that one look turned into just moving a few things around, which turned into maybe just straightening up the back of the shed, which ultimately turned into a five hour cleanout of the entire shed.

I have to say I'm rather impressed with the work that I did. Cleaning out the shed is nowhere near as easy as it sounds b/c I had to keep the emergency supplies within easy reach should there be an emergency (what can I say, we live in earthquake country) while also making sure that my husband has access to the glorious yard tools and we have access to our bikes and the entire 2 tons worth of stuff that manages to go with the bikes. But I did manage to get it all rearranged so that now one side of the shed is the yard/bike/hiking/emergency side and the other is my packaging inventory and a soon-to-be-setup table where I can hopefully accomplish said packaging. For the moment my actual packaged inventory is still living in the basement but hopefully as I start to go through some of the packaging I can make more room out there.

I even have an old rug that is currently in the wash to make the shed truly homey. And then it'll be me, my packaging, the yard tools, the bikes, the emergency supplies, and a multitude of spiders all coexisting happily out in the shed...or so I hope!
