Day 8: Waste Tally

I'm cleaning out the office!

I finally sucked it up and bought three folding tables at Home Depot. Not in love with this company by any means, but it's close and I knew they had the tables I wanted. Plus the store I go to is great because the employees will almost always give me a discount just for being nice and chatting it up with them. Thank you.

I put the tables in a "T" shape so, I now have a separate craft zone and computer zone. Sweet! Now where to put my robot zone?

I was going to do built in desks, but then I realized that if I ever move (which is likely cause this is a rental) I would have to leave all that wood behind, or even worse...tear it out...not too sustainable.

So here's the day's tally minus some of the office stuff. As with the shed yesterday, most of the stuff I'm getting rid of is recyclable. Look for pics of the completed office tomorrow!
