Today we moved my bedroom ensemble out of the dining room! For 9+ months, Bill and I have been making do with a temporary 'bedroom' while the basement was finished. Previous to the remodel, the 'master bedroom' was the only finished room in the basement while the kids enjoyed the main floor rooms. Now that the kids are moved into their new rooms, and their old rooms have been cleared out, we are able to move into the larger of the two main floor rooms to serve as a long-term temporary master bedroom. I hope some day to finish my remodelling plans and convert the two rooms and bathroom there into a master bedroom suite.
Speaking of cleaning out the rooms on the main floor; you never realize how much junk your kids have squirreled away until you start shovelling it out yourself!!! Helena gave 3 garbage sacks full of clothes to her cousin! All of it too small, but beautiful and in wonderful condition. Many toys were also discovered and given away. We filled the back of the Expedition and hauled what didn't go to family to Deseret Industries.
When I moved Helena's bed frame (which she no longer wants), I found a patch of mold growing on the floor! MOLD!?! I should state now that the kids are not allowed food or drinks in their rooms... which roughly translates to kids sneaking food and drink into their room, and mom and dad screaming about it when discovered.
Of course, she was shocked about the mold patch and couldn't imagine how in the world it could have come to exist. I made sure that she got the privilege of cleaning it up, though!
