Painting, Organizing, and Purging

I've been busy giving my bedroom a makeover. It's puzzling to me that it is nearly the last room in the house to be painted. When we moved here, nearly three years ago, we were very intentional about decorating every room, but our bedroom seemed to be the default place to store stuff. In our time here, we have painted every room but the little office, which is the next and final room to paint. In my goals for 2009, I wrote that I wanted my bedroom to become a sanctuary. I have spent the last month and half accomplishing that goal - new paint, new bedding, and now new things to donate to Community Thrift. I love, painting, organizing, and purging!
