The new room

I don't know if you'll be bored with it, but I find it endlessly fascinating what the change in my bedroom has done to me.

Point one - Clothes are no longer collecting on the chair they are hung up or put in the hamper right away. I had no idea this would be a byproduct of rearranging the furniture in the room. My theory is that the chair is now blocked by the bed. Either I hang the clothes back up or walk all the way around the bed to the chair (that's silly). I can't put the clothes on the bed because I'm going to sleep in it. Amazing! This is a life long battle and the chair has really served as more of a hanger as long as it's been in my room. I actually sit in the chair now!

Point two - The bed gets made every day. I think there are two reasons for this. First, I bought a beautiful pillow to display on the bed. It makes me happy to see all the pillows stacked neatly with it in front. Second, the bed is no longer along the wall, but in the center of the room, so it's not like arm wrestling to get the bed spread nice and smooth. I just flip the covers up and it's done. How exciting!

Point three - I want to lay in bed and read in the evening. There are two reasons for this. First the lamp is now next to the bed so when I get sleepy as I'm reading I don't have to get up out of bed to turn off the light. I'm sure you all know how annoying that can be. The second reason is that I now have a night stand of sorts, it's a filing cabinet, next to the bed to set my book, glasses and phone on (which is my alarm). I don't have to set it all on the floor and wonder if I'll step on it as I get out of bed in the morning. The only thing that would make this situation more perfect is if it were an actual night stand and the lamp was on it. Well . . . something to look forward to ; )

I wonder what other changes this new arrangement will lead to?
