The Brooklyn Project: And God said, "Let There Be...Floor?"
Yes, my bitchin' nesters, the lord hath shone his light on me.
After many baby steps into the bedroom (and then back out again), I learned that I do, indeed, have a floor.
At first I was all Pauly Shored out, like, whoa, what is this wood-like substance?
But then, I came to realize that when you pick up 6 months worth of clothing, both clean and dirty, a whole new world is revealed: Hard Wood Floors!
Let's look at the before picture, shall we?
Eeek fest. That is a true tragedy. And, let me tell you, I'm no where near being finished. Rome wasn't built in a day, but, I've definitely made some headway.
Now, feast your eyes on the fruit of my highly motivated labor:
Hosanna and Hallelujah!
What to Expect When You Clean Your Bedroom:
1. Be prepared to throw shit away people.
I mean clothes, old books, magazines, used tissues, and worse.
2. Get a Ziplock©! There's change EVERYWHERE!
I feel like I struck it rich down there in the bowels of the bedroom! Don't walk people, run! Your fortune awaits you. (Results Not Typical)
3. Don't expect to finish.
Do enough work to see a difference, then take a break. The longer it takes to shape the place up, the more you'll aim to keep it in that condition.
Motivate nesters! I haven't felt this accomplished in weeks!
Go, re-discover your floors!
God made them for a reason!

WOW. It literally can PAY to clean your room. Looks great....
My bedroom was worse than yours - really. Years worse. I cleaned it to the point of bare floor all around and discovered that the bed is several inches higher than I remembered!
