But over the years, I yearned for having laundry in the house. California weather is wonderful, but dragging the basket outside had gotten old. Working from home, I also wanted an actual spare bedroom, since the second bedroom had become my full time office.
I came up with the idea of doing a combo laundry/office and even though the end design wasn't even close to what I originally planned, I love the way it turned out.
It's a great workspace. I have a wonderful view of my yard out the window and it's so easy to throw in a load of laundry while I am working on a presentation. Like so many things in life, not what I planned on, but exactly what I needed.
