a quick question

what kind of person uses silicon caulking to put up shelving? the kind of person who feels that 6 screws on their own won't do the trick, it seems.

argh!

a new project

we're great at starting projects in this household...we love the potential brimming in a set of plans. When it comes to executing them, well, ehhh...it's often a lot of work and there are naps to be had, and relaxing to do, and...well, you know.

we're embarking on a new project that has to get done, though, it has us living in more chaos than usual, and we've got a deadline. Byron happened to hear some really nice speakers a few weeks ago, and at the same time I told him of my idea to change our master bedroom into our entertainment/listening room/guest room and move our sleeping quarters to the guest bedroom. (We use probably less than half the space in our bedroom, the rest of the space just accumulates stuff) We then had brunch with Byron's enthusiastic German audiophile friend, and mulled things over. The universe seemed to be telling us to go for it.

Well golly, isn't there a lot of work involved in switching bedrooms! our clothes are in various closets throughout our second floor, (which is an improvement over being strewn all over the floor and furniture) and there's a big decluttering project underway. Goodwill will be the recipient of a carload of stuff from us, lucky them. We're going to paint both rooms eventually, but at this point the plan is to get the listening room freed up to receive the new audio gear on Saturday, and then get ourselves organized enough that dressing for work in the morning isn't a scavenger hunt every morning.

Hopefully by the time our next rotation of houseguests arrive we'll have a cozy fully-kitted super-room for them to stay in. As usual, pictures will be available if I happen to remember to take pictures :)
