This is a photocentric post. Beware.
It made sense that some commented in the prior post that it was difficult to judge the change without before photos. In the interest of full disclosure I have photos of the remaining mess. Along with age, it seems, comes a lack of shame.
I do have a rest home for old Macs.
Yesterday I finished with the remaining odds and ends. I decided to leave the relic of a treadmill open, hoping I will use it. I am supposed to do as much walking as possible and this does make walking easier. Gatto likes it as another choice of cat perch. Seeing the photo reminds me I need to put the smoke alarm back over the door.
This took me five or six days but I stuck with it and got it done. Mark called it clean and busy. I bristled. Busy? Well, maybe, but I've had a lifetime of horses and show rings and a collection of a kazillion photos and stuff. What's the point of keeping the things you like and not having them where you can see them? There is no point. I am not a minimalist, fair to say.

Yes, there's a lot of stuff. Your stuff, your choice. Go you!
Perhaps I should take some before pictures of our hell hole....in case I want to do the before and after! You did a great job!
I'm kinda afraid to take pictures of what I have now! I think you did a great job of organizing and paring down. I tell my kids (as they urge me to purge more) that this is my stuff and . . . I'm still here!
Nice! Yes I think you should keep the stuff that you enjoy looking at and those things that make you smile:)
Yes, there are a lot of photos, but as you say what's the point of keeping the things you like and not having them where you can see them?
Ok. I am impressed that you kept on plugging! It’s your office and should reflect you.
So many photos, Boud.
Yes, do before photos. I didn't think about it before it was pointed out, Denise.
I didn't purge much, Miss Merry. Really just kind of moved things around!
Why not, right Far Side?
Lots of years of horses, horse shows and just plain life, nick.
I bet someone didn't notice they were anonymous!
It looks good and I'm sure it feels good being in that room now. When I have stuff to be done, it takes up a lot of room inside my head.
Congratulations! I hope you celebrate, that was a huge job! 😊❤️
It does, Pixie. It's the cleanest room in the house! It has be weighing on me, too.
I'm celebrating by being in a basically dust free room with a clean air purifier filter, Cheerful. I can breathe!
