Ace Hardware Member Update

I looked over the notes from yesterday and I think the simplest plan is still the best one.
I'd rather keep the schedule loose in the morning, then firm up the afternoon once everyone confirms they are free.
I can bring the extra folding chairs if that helps, and I do not mind setting things up a little early.
The weather seems easier this week, so an outdoor option might be more comfortable after all.
I also remembered the plant you mentioned, and I found a good place for it near the window where it should get steady light.
If you want, I can stop by first and make sure the room is aired out and tidy before anyone arrives.
I am around later tonight too, so send a quick note whenever you decide and I will work around it without any trouble at all.

This communication is intended as a membership-related account notice from Ace Hardware regarding current reward availability. Availability is limited to the stated timeframe.

I meant to reply sooner, but I wanted to test a couple of ideas first and make sure they would actually work.
What helped most was clearing the whole shelf and only putting back the things I use every day.
Once I did that, the space felt easier to manage and I stopped hunting around for the same little items.
I also switched the lamp to the corner by the chair, which made the room feel calmer in the evening and better for reading.
If you are still deciding, I think it is worth trying the simplest version before changing everything at once.
That way you can notice what really improves the flow instead of guessing afterward.
I can come by this weekend and help sort through the cabinets too, because doing it with another person usually makes the decisions quicker and less tiring.
