Today is waiting for internet people to fix my cable coming into my apartment so I can stream again. Then I'm gonna finish my last shelf and unpack! And stuff the little free libraries with books. Unpacking in November. I moved here in mid July. It's been a year.

I hit a point where I'd almost had to declare bankruptcy (I was less than 2 months away from pulling the plug) and could not afford to furnish my new place with matching stuff, and I didn't want to move the old heavy shelves over so I didn't. I now have the shelves but I'm not entirely out of the woods. It'll take time to dig out.

Also no longer in ant and rat and mouse infested slumlord building.

Anyhoo, things are better. I have white Billy shelves. I have mostly matching kallax shelves. I moved from larger to progressively smaller places and tbh I have adapted to office in bedroom again. It's just me. Why do I need a whole other room I just dump crap in?

And come on, look at this view.

@artyewok hey, as long as your comfortable and the space works for you, that's what's important! I realized living in a one bedroom doesn't work for me because of all my crafts. I just do so many that I end up with stuff everywhere and do better with a dedicated craft room. But not everyone needs that space! It's awesome that you've found a place youre feeling better in.

@seanendcrafter I'd rather have a bigger space, buuuut. Toronto. The rent is too damn high

@artyewok yeah, there is that. :(
