Renovations

[owlmoose]

We spent much of this weekend moving furniture around, and so I'm now writing from you from my temporary office, which is also our temporary bedroom as well as the permanent living room. The bed was the last thing to move; by the time it was in place, it had gotten dark enough that I wasn't able to take a good picture, so I'll document the whole thing tomorrow. It'll be interesting to see how this works out. My workplace is now only a few steps from T's side of the bed, and he often sleeps much later than when I start working -- not to mention that the kitchen is just on the other side of the room. It's challenging enough to work from home in an open-plan condo when you have some space separation. We'll see how it goes. I might ask about temporarily going into the office while this construction project is going on (we're replacing the upstairs carpet with a lovely oak engineered hardwood) -- I already went in one day last week, on the day the flooring materials were delivered, and it worked out pretty well.

Ugh, house stuff can be such a headache, but SO WORTH IT. Can't wait to see the floors

Ah yes the "uproot your entire life whilst construction." We did it for months when we redid the kitchen. Fingers crossed your floor project goes faster than ours did!

Ah, I remember when we did that, lived in the living room and the kitchen for several weeks while we were having our bedrooms done. It was a rough time. It was also right after Anais died, but before Patience and Fortitude were born, we were deliberately doing the construction work when we had no cats. It was also right around the time Trump went into the White House. Such awful memories. At least Trump is gone. Good luck with the remodel! I'm sure the results will be awesome.
