Hadden's Moving out - I'm getting a sewing room!!!

Hadden, our 20 year old son informed Neale and myself that he was moving out last Friday - Sunday, Neale and I were at Bunnings choosing paint chips for our new study (Neale) and sewing room (me!!!).
Hadden is moving into a house in Morwell with one of his friends. 
Laura is moving into Hadden's room - once it's cleaned up and decontaminated, and Neale and I are sharing Laura's rooms (her bedroom is a long narrow room we divided in half).  A three bedroom house with 3 boys and a girl was a tight fit and we all had to share!!  It's going to be so strange and quiet  having only one child left at home.

Hadden's moving tomorrow and is borrowing my car - I drive a 10 year old station wagon, so he's borrowing that and I get to drive his car tomorrow.  Hadden drives a 2012 Mazda 3 Sport, so I'm going to be travelling in style! 

I'm so looking forward to having my own sewing space - have already checked out tables and a shelving unit and shelving system  and chair at Bunnings & Officeworks! Unfortunately, I won't be able to fit all my gear into the area - but it's going to be so nice to have my own little area.

Soooo, I'm going to be spending the next couple of weekends cleaning, washing walls, painting and setting up my space.

That's my sewing machine on the kitchen table - buried by stuff! The rest of the table is covered in Neale's Uni stuff - definitely not conducive for sewing.
Neale is also looking forward to having his own space - he's got 6 months to go until he completes his Master's Degree.  Most of the artwork is done, but he still has to refine and finish his exegesis.
