Does everyone have that one room in their house where everything "else" goes when it has no designated spot? I swear, even after five years, just last week I finally got around to moving all the stuff out of there (and to the basement, hey, it's a step in the process) so I could actually make my guest bedroom useable. Then I bought a bed (woot!) and nightstand for it (okay, mostly because the folks are visiting next weekend and I cringed at them sleeping on the sleeper sofa again). The room looks like crap still because I need to paint it and fix the ceiling, but hey, at least it's going to be a real bedroom. It only took me five years to get to that point.

Now, the situation involving the lightswitch turning off the computer plug is still to be rectified in there. Will try and hash that one out tonight. Stupid old electrical stuff.

Here's the new bed and nightstand, which I LOVE. Now I just need some new comforter and sheets and we're good to go. I was thinking that I wanted something cool and asian or indian inspired and then to paint the walls dark red or purple but I have to admit I like the clean and simple look in these pictures. Off to Macy's and Penneys tonight to see what I can find on sale.

Unfortunately, my whole house is in imminent danger of becoming "that room"....

That's what a friend of our said last night when he was over and I mentioned it (he had previously not seen said room). He said "yeah, my whole house".

*giggle*
