This sounds gross but...

I think I need to design an office/work room with a toilet in it.   No, I always have a work room designed with an ensuite.  But this last few weeks I really need it.  Walking across the hallway or across the house just isn't working for me.  And as much as I have loved my 8 foot by 4 foot work table in the center of the room design.  I think I should be in the center of the room instead.  Cutting table on the left, sewing machine in the center and pressing station on the right with an office set up behind me.   cabinets above it all except the sewing machine, it has to be centered on a window.   That would be perfect.  The pressing station will be where I keep all my scraps in bins and moveable so I can pull it away from the wall to press big items and a walk in closet too. 

I finished my youngest son's quilt last week and in my quest to press and give it a hair cut, I had to string every pressing surface I had along the work table in the dining room and it still wasn't long enough.  So an 8 foot table there will have to be made.  I miss my giant work surface but the extra space just became a dumping ground for everything else.  Now that I have cut that in half I'm still working in the same  400 square inches I did when the table was much bigger.  That's a 20x20 inch cutting space on a 48 x 36 inch cutting mat.  I'd do better with a rotating mat in my work space size.  14x 14 is okay but cutting wof strips isn't great with it.   

And I really need a desk.  School work and writing is hard on a laptop in a lap or on the bed with a blutooth keyboard and mouse.  The mouse ends up in the floor and if I get up the dog or cat takes my place and screws up everything I have set in just the right place. 

I know having the potty in another room means I get up and get in steps but there is always a boy in the bathroom.  I want my own. only mine again.  I shared at the old house but not that often and even that pissed me off.  In my dream room, there will be a door and a deadbolt.  No one uses that potty but me.  full stop.  there will be at least one extra and if someone is in there go use a bucket on the back porch or go home.  Yeah you two boys will have to move out sooner or later.  

I can't be expected to take their shit and take care of their dogs and cats for the rest of my life.  Well maybe if I only last the next 5.5 years.
