Keeping Busy

As I said last time, I'm still in a holding pattern - waiting for paperwork to start my new job, waiting to hear from agents on the new project. Waiting, waiting, waiting. So I used my time to work more on my writing loft project. Now that the electric is finished, I was able to move my stuff up from downstairs.

This is what the space looked like before:

    
And then when I cleaned it: 



And now it looks like this: 

      I really need to fill those shelves...

Pretty sweet, huh? Well, almost. It was very warm up here yesterday. I had the newly purchased oscillating tower fan on full blast, to pull some of the cooler air in from outside. And the attic fan. Maybe what I really need are some ceiling fans, but I plan on getting my uncle over here to run a duct from the basement so that the A/C and heat come up here too. Winter's not as bad as summer. This morning, though, it's pleasantly cool and quiet, and I am in love with it. 

Eventually I will be moving more stuff around the attic, clearing the arranged clutter left after the Great Attic Purge of '11 and pushing it under the eaves so that I can use the space for a comfy reading chair and other stuff. I have my rocking chair up here already, but I think a great squashy armchair is needed. Someday I may even have the whole thing finished. But this will do for now. It will do nicely.
