…and what a day it’s been!

Finished up cleaning and moving furniture in the family room and it looks spectacular!  I can’t believe how huge it looks.  How I ever managed to squeeze so much into that room is amazing.  The only new piece of furniture I’ve brought in is the v-shaped desk that I bought for Patrick a few years ago.  (It was really too big for his apartment, so I took it back and got him a smaller one from Office Depot.)  Anyhow, all the furniture that I had in the family room is now spread over that room and my new office (Kevin’s old bedroom).  There is so much space available now in both rooms and it feels wonderful.

The second bit of news is that Patrick bought a truck today!  It is a 2003 Dodge Ram Quad Cab (meaning it has four doors and a front and back seat).  It is really a beautiful truck with all the bells and whistles you might find in a luxury car.  He got a great deal on it from CarMax and is well equipped to head off to Burning Man in August.

I thought I was ready to go back to work tomorrow, but I really am not.  It would be so nice to have another week at home, but I’m sure I wouldn’t have done so much this past week if I had known I was going to be off another week.  And it will be very nice to take off the next week in mid-August and I’ll be ready then to get going on another batch of projects.  But I’m still not eager to deal with using my brain once more.

Ah well, it will be quite nice to come home tomorrow night to my beautiful new spaces.
