I've gotten a single comment concerning the lack of promised drawings of what I'd been planning on doing to my office.
The simple fact of the matter is that I was so involved in actually doing the project that I only did enough of any particular drawing to solve some visual or dimensional problems... otherwise, I forged ahead with the construction. As a result, there were no post-worthy drawings completed.
Work was indeed begun last week. However, as predicted, I did not choose to spend each day of the first week of my vacation at the sceneshop. As the opportunities arose, I did whatever I felt like doing throughout the week, which meant that by the end of Friday I was about two days behind on the construction. No matter, though. I'm still having fun with it.
The bad news is that I'm still working on now, the second week of my five week vacation/holiday/comp hours festival. The good news is that the visiting percussionist and his friend (frequent houseguests of the landlords) will be in the house this week, Tuesday-Friday. This means that even if I do come home any of these evenings, I'll be greeted with a neverending, booming, loud voice and other various 'trick-ticka-ticka-tacks' from which no nook or cranny of the house will provide escape. When this occurs I usually just make a hasty exit and go see a film or something, just so the added noise in the house doesn't drive me up the wall... While that doesn't sound so great on my end, the good news comes into play that I'll have plenty of opportunities to work on the office during night hours this week, as going home isn't really an option.
As a side note, lest I misrepresent, this percussionist and his friend are great guys. The problem is that I just don't mesh with the additional noise. At all. Screaming/crying babies I can tune out easily, but for some reason, the noise these guys bring seems to, in my head, get so amplified I can concentrate on nothing else.
Anyway, so I'll be working on the office another week. Maybe, just maybe, I'll have it completed by the time I leave the place Friday night.
In the post below you'll see images of what I've done so far.
