Whew! Glad that's almost done!

For over a month I've been doing a bedroom remodel so I could move/improve the home office. I'd grossly outgrown the old one, and since Momma finally decided she was tired of computing on the dining room table it was a go.

Well, the real reason was the doc told me I really needed to lose some weight so I bought an exercise bike. Placing the bike in the larger (mostly unused) room seemed silly, so the office got moved to the the bigger room.

The old office will be the exercise/reading room (complete with rocking chairs). Eventually we'll put a futon in there for those infrequent guests or the grandkids.

The new office space is nice and bright.



Looks pretty good if you don't look close. Frankly I suck at drywall and these walls show it. I particularly suck at sanding drywall compound, which is very apparent. But I'm calling it "character", as in my new office walls has character. And that's my story and I'm sticking to it.

Unfortunately all that nice clean wall space will disappear behind shelving because with two of us in here we really need the storage space. Ah well, it was nice while it lasted. Then again they'll cover up a lot of that character. I love it when a plan comes together!

Once the shelves are up it'll pretty much be done. Ugh! Now I need to go deal with 10+ years of crap in the old office so I can get the bike set up and actually start exercising. No rest for the wicked.
