Working Downtown, Post-Work Errands, Returning to the Floors

With the workers coming back today, to address the various issues we found… Liz and I couldn’t stay home. So we did what we used to do in the old days – head downtown, to work onsite at our respective offices.

Selfie downtown, been a while.

I walked with Liz to her building, and was debating catching a cab to work. But I had some extra time to kill, and opted to hop the CTA instead.

Still weird to me, to head to the Merchandise Mart after all these years.

Post work, I dropped off Liz at a hair salon, while I went to Home Depot for some errands. Looking around for a plant, as a gift for Emily.

Found a nice option (low maintenance).

Looking for some new carpets, for Hazel.

Walked by the drywall section. A small art installation, depicting the intersection of gravity and time.

Back home, with a fresh coat on the first floor.

Dining room, with some newly purchased Ram Board (because Liz needs to get the doors back on horses, for a few more coats before they can be installed).

Upstairs view.

Flooring into the furnace room.

Main office.
