Studio M

Seriously??!!!  I can't believe it has been 7 months since I have blogged!  All I can say is wow!  So taking a page out of 2012 (January), I decided it was time to get back to it.  That being said, catching up 2012 is just too daunting.  Instead I am choosing to look forward and not overwhelm myself with all that happened in 2012 (which was a lot given the number of photos I took!).  So now that I am settled into my new digs (which is what this post is about), I am committing to blogging.  How frequently remains to be "seen."  But as I clean out the piles and boxes of "stuff," I am taking note of what is important.  And documenting my life is important!  So there you have it.

Now to the addition!  After moving into our new home, we decided I needed a space for me and all my "stuff."  We had downsized and what was now missing was a place I could park myself, camera and pictures and create.  Also we needed space for the exercise room and my other passion, gardening.  So out of that was created Studio M.

It took 4 months and only one hitch but so worth the wait!!  Here's a look at the process:

One of these days, I will take a picture of the almost-finished addition - still have to paint the outside but that is going to a spring project! 

This is my sanctuary.  It is attached to far end of the hanger and houses my studio (hence the name), the exercise room and a small area dedicated for my gardening equipment.  We are still moving my "stuff" into the studio area and garden area, but the exercise area has been completed. 

So no more excuses!  Now for some serious work on the picture projects!!
