On the home front...

So this year, in addition to my new years resolution... I made a list of things that we had to do around the house... and IF I COULD FIND THE LIST, I WOULD POST IT. I think we are doing ok for it only being March. We finally cleaned and sealed the grout in the master bath... and now we are at the next thing on the list THE GUEST BEDROOM. Before my brother got married, he basically lived with us so the guest bedroom had purpose as a guest bedroom.. But we finally threw away his tooth brush and I have reclaimed the guest room as MY OFFICE.

I need a space to do the small amount of work that I do, right? I get tired of toting my Designosauras ( that's my dell) back and forth from the kitchen table to the antique dresser to the floor to the sofa... I'm ready for a real office :)

Solution:

So we swapped our full size guest bed for a twin. We are building a custom "day bed" frame so it can function like a sofa and guest bed. More to come.

The desk... I wanted something BIG... to have plenty of room for all of my paper and printers and design stuff...

I scratched out some designs for the desk and the bed and talked the over with Scott (whose engineer background comes in handy!) and We (Peter my hubby, and Scott my Brother) have began the trek to my new custom office.

The Materials

The beginning of my new desk at around 7' LONG. Progress report to come next week!
