Back Office Demo, Solo Run
Made a bit of a mess. The worst part of demo: the dirty insulation still up in the ceiling, that has nowhere to go but down (on either you on the floor, or both).

Malk
I’m officially old. My pop culture upbringing would have had me pounding my fist at the marketing brainstorm, insisting that us calling a product “Malk” would be suicide.
Back Office Demo Together, Continued
Liz and I were back at the back office demo, today. Picking up from where we left off.
9K Run
Nervous. A big leap today.
I’m heading out to attempt a 9K run. To help me, I’ve put on Liz’s vest (which has a water pack), and I’m also taking along a round of snacks.
Elmo and Iron Man: Prometheus Twins
I don’t know whether to be happy or saddened that Prometheus Elmo has found a friend. Elmo is starting to show his age, and Iron Man now seems to be along for the ride.
This feels like the start of some kind of Marvel/Sesame crossover movie, where I’m hoping Big Bird and Wolverine team up for some kind of rescue.
Back Office Demo, Together
Liz suited up with me today, with the two of us tackling more demo work in the back office. Made a bit more headway into the ceiling.
Backyard Bunny Gams
Spotted this guy in our back yard, and my only thought was: the audacity.
Cabinet Class, First Day
Working with Nick, our instructor, learning how to use a sliding table saw.
Back Office Demo Begins
Got to work today, doing demo in the back office. I relocated a lot of items a week or so ago, and this back room is now ready for some full-on demo.
New Windows
Our new vestibule window, installed. It’s quite amazing how much light is coming in now, and how dark this space really was… prior to this installation.
Spotting a Running Liz in the Wild
On my way home from work, I happened to spot someone in the distance. There was a lot of waving.
Window Work Continues
The temp window that we had along the stairwell got taken out today. Here’s the view, with it removed and open to the elements.
They really built everything right up to the property lines, here in Hyde Park. I can literally reach out and touch the neighboring building, if I wanted to.
Window Work Begins
Lots of window work happening this week. In addition to all the prep work we’ve been doing for the main hall area, we are also planning to have new windows installed in the dining room and vestibule.
Landing Wall, Drywall Prep
Some custom drywall pieces in place. Liz doing some more measuring.
Landing Wall, Prep
Measuring once, cutting twice. Wait… strike that. Reverse it.
