Day before yesterday, I wrote about getting unstuck about space before going to rent the climate controlled storage room. I'd heard such good things about it on the phone that I knew I'd like it. When I got there, all was well except - there was a mothball smell in the building. The owner explained that they'd tried to use mothballs to get rid of crickets, then took the mothballs away. She said the smell had already faded a lot. Hmm.
I probably would have backed out, said "well, I'll think about it" and stayed stuck for another few years. But I'd just publicly announced here that I was unstuck and was renting this space! So I went ahead and rented it.
Yesterday I picked up the shipping supplies for which I have no space at my own studio. I drove them directly to the storage room. Great! And today I ordered an odor eliminator to put into the room. Maybe that will keep my cardboard (and later, my artwork) from absorbing any naptha smell.
So thank you, readers, for being there. You helped me stay unstuck and keep moving on to new solutions.
