As good as it gets

One of our pain points is the basement.
You need to be a dward to walk in it, the floor is definitely uneven because we wanted to secure water flowing through it in the only drain, the lighting is not cosy and there is some extra ceiling mysterious stuff in one of the rooms that is questionable in choice and beauty.

On top of this, I have the bad habit to try to save as many things as possible that could be reused. In the specific boxes and emballage have got some space in one of the basement rooms.

In the last years instead of having things in order, I have just thrown everything in a big pile, making the room even worse and any chance to play ping pong or fuzzball endangered by boxes or refreshened by some cats "leftovers" (as the cats have felt threatened too, I guess, and decided to mark the territory).

I therefore tried to made it at least accessible and cleaned.

Fuzzball and pingpong. Now visible and accessible through the boxes piles
A room with a view. Not showing much of the room I cleaned but how potentially it could be nice to play pingpong now that there is space

At the same time this season is challenging. Spring cleaning (that for me last the whole year) should peak now, painting and windows renovation is at this best while the whole garden needs attention before the ground elder will take over everything....
