The Sandbag House Reno Project - shedding II - powering up. But not the way you think

1000031028.jpg

It's baby steps that are often huge. A little while ago, I started attacking the shed. Sorting, cleaning, chucking and selling. Even giving...

There is still a way to go, but yesterday's big little step was powering up.

The light means that I don't have to stumble around in the dark on cold winter mornings when I load for the market. Or on dark evenings when the gas runs out at the most inopportune moments. As it inevitably does.

The chiller in which I keep my market stock has been relocated.

After the market, yesterday, I unloaded only the bits that had to be refrigerated, cleaned and sorted. The rest lurked on the stoep or in the boot until the electrification was complete.

So, instead of moving some things twice, I unpacked into the new space and then I moved my other stock: product and spare jars. As well as the other "mess" that makes my market stall look like it should, each week.

The "sin" at the back is next: after yet another piece of office furniture is liberated of its contents. Burned. Or chucked. Not a job I am looking forward to...

Some of that back mess, is earmarked for use in the re-imagined space. Some, will, of course, also be chucked, given or sold.

Step by step, one day at a time.

Until next time

Oh well done!! Your shed is looking great! It's so easy to get bogged down with all the things that need attending to around the house that one eventually just does nothing. Especially since we are so overwhelmed and have so much on our plates. But as you said, baby steps! @zakludick has started making a dent in our garage and both boys now have desks in their rom that they can use to do their homework! Zak is incredibly good at building things and we even have a new coffee table, plus he fixed the old one! @aimeludick and I sorted out some space for me in the kitchen where I can keep all my baking goodies! It's actually far more inspiring to work from there now that it's so beautifully organized!
