Amicable Takeover of dh’s unused office Proceeds Apace!

Last year, while he was overseas, I shifted dh’s office at university from a cramped unfriendly space on the fourth to a big warm office on the fifth floor, decluttering madly and making room for him to finish his book.

His “home” office, mostly unvisited during the past year, has been beckoning, suggesting expanded workspace for my ever-widening art interests. At long last dh has capitulated, and even assisted in my amicable takeover of his defunct home office.

Urging me on [f*ck! #)$$%*&^ f*ck!, etc], he helped shift furniture and a heavy, moth-infested carpet, so that now he has computer access at the front of the room, and I have a BIG worktable under the window at the back, with heaps of shelving. Go me!

I have shifted my jewelry-making operations into this new space, leaving the sitting room free for, well, sitting!

I also shifted heaps of stuff out of my current art room so that I actually have elbow room now.

Looking forward to arting in my new space!

Wow! Nona! You are lucky to have TWO spaces for arting!! Hope that the extra space really frees up your artistic soul even more!!

I got the liquid pencil from Gordon Harris!! It looks cool, doesn't it? Can't wait to give it a go!!

My husband and I are making office room for each other too. It came to a slow down when after all his effort and sweat I told him the desk he set up for me is bad feng shui because it partially blocks a window. He doesn't understand all that but tolerates me because of love.
I love the way you tell your story and your art is very interesting.
