Oh, what a relief it is!!!
The dining room table is completely clean. We ate dinner there tonight. As you can see, here is a series of pictures from the progression of the cleaning adventure. I admit the impetus was the arrival of my parents. My mom is sitting behind me as I type this and her comments have included "A clean table is a good thing." and "I suppose you are going to blame me for this."
Well, yes, but only in a good way.
I have pretty much sorted and containerized everything. I still have a long ways to go, but am now more determined to get that studio in the basement set up. I didn't find too much that I'd completely forgotten I had, but I probably have enough basic supplies to carry me through a couple of long winded stamping sessions.
I'm pooped, so it's bed time now - my dad is sleeping on the couch behind me and my daughter is waiting for me to get off the computer and turn off the lights so she can go to sleep. She's been kicked out of her room by the grandparents.
