The Basement and other Ramblings

Not sure it was all too clear in previous posts, but the big push on the basement reno is not in the least due to the fact that I am ready to haul all of the matchbox car parts, mcdonalds happymeal toys, legos, railroad tracks, stuffed animals, etc that I am constantly tripping over in our family room to the back yard and start a humungo bonfire over which I can toast marshmallows in the toxic plastic burning smoke that ensues (and yet I call myself a tree hugger), it is in fact due to the fact that K's room is presently an office and the closet, well lets just say the closet has accumulated a few things over the past 11 years we have been in the house. The basement remodel will allow us to move the computer and desk as well as the sleeper sofa that is presently in the room so the "conversion to little girl's room" can begin. The toys moving downstairs from the family room is mearly an added benefit. :)
