Rearranging and a fresh start

After I set up my work space in the living room a little more than a year ago I actually never moved bavk. What was planned as a temporary solution turned into a permanent set up. And the room that was once my office turned more and more into a storage room. Now that work as gotten a little slower and now that we FINALLY finished renovating the kitchen buffet cabinet we decided it's time to change back rooms.

Temporary work area in the living room

But after some pondering and measuring and discussing we decided it makes more sense to turn my old office into our new living/TV room. And to turn the living room into my new office. This way I have finally more space and light (!) to take pictures. And I even might be able to set up a little client meeting table in the future...

My former office almost empty and waiting to be cleaned and painted...

All my work and art stuff in the living room...ugh! Tons of work ahead!

So the following days will be spend rearranging, painting walls, sorting stuff, moving furniture,...I secretly wish someone would come over and pick up all the stuff I accumulated over the past year so that I could start free of junk into the new year. But I know this won't happen...however this will be a fresh start anyway! A much needed fresh start! All the stuff and clutter and the temporary work area in our living room started to wear me out. Left me back feeling overwhelmed and dissatisfied with our current working/living situation yet unable to change anything. So, I have no idea how everything turns out and if I will like it in the end but at least it'll be some change. A fresh start.

Instagram Photo Prints

Somehow I always thought the resolution of Instagram photos is too low to have them professionally developed. But turns out I was wrong. When I ordered photos last month I just gave it a try and had some of my Intragram images developed, too! And they turned out GREAT! Much better than I thought! Everybody loved them! I ordered my prints at fotopost24.de in the smallest available square size which is 13x13 cm / 5,1x5,1 inch. See, even Mini loved them :-)



I gave most of the photos away to a friend who requested photos of Mini but I think about re-ordering more images to make a picture wall or have lots of them framed next to each other in one large frame.
 

And below one of my favorite images of Mini!
 

Beautiful October day in Munich Neuhausen-Nymphenburg

On Saturday we spend a beautiful sunny and warm October day in Munich. Though Munich is just a 2 hour drive away and I've been there dozens of times there are some boroughs I haven't discovered (fully), yet. One of the boroughs we strolled around during this daytrip was Neuhausen-Nymphenburg – and I can't believe what I've missed so far! Look at all those beautiful houses from the late 19th / early 20th century. So much amazing architecture! Oh, and there are tons of beautiful little stores, too, but these deserve a blog post on their own!
