Tidying: Adding Equipment to the Gym

Ever since Christmas, our home gym has been in a state of utter chaos. Cliff got a new weight machine for Christmas, and we also purchased a new recliner to put upstairs in the glider room. Since those two things has been in big boxes for a while, we began piling stuff on top of the horizontal surfaces. When we first converted our dining room into a gym, it looked really good.

But after we started piling things up, it got harder and harder to use it as a gym. Not only did we have the weight machine and recliner to contend with, but we had amassed so many boxes from Christmas deliveries and other miscellaneous purchases that we had a mountain of cardboard greeting us whenever we walked in the door. So, I had to rely on help from two of my pals for this clean up to be a success.

I can only take partial credit for this tidying adventure. If it hadn't been for Cliff's motivation to finally put together the weight machine, I'm sure we never would have gotten our home gym cleaned. My role in this cleanup was limited to a bit of sweeping and helping to get the boxes out of the room. Here are the before and after pictures.
