A Bit of Oddness

Came across this bit of trivia while surfing: While sitting down, lift your right foot off the floor and make clockwise circles. Continue doing this and try to draw the number six in the air with your right hand. Your foot will change direction and there's nothing you can do about it.

Construction Day 6

End of day six, and pretty much the end of the demolition phase. The front half of the house is completely opened up, and you can see clear to the ceiling. The framing phase starts tomorrow.

Unfortunately I still don't have the final plans yet, so things may slow down if I can't get it asap. We've been making some last minute tweaks and getting it all into an official AutoCAD drawing is taking a bit longer than anticipated. In principal, this is the kind of thing that should have been completed before we started construction, but our designer gave us such amazing ideas that we had to incorporate them.

Construction Day 3

Taken this morning... The demolition continues.

Construction Begins!

Woo-hoo! The remodel is now officially under way! Stopped by the house early this morning and watched them take a sledgehammer and pickaxe to the kitchen.

Refracted Sunshine

After a couple days of heavy rain it was nice to finally get a break. Drove around the corner from the house and saw the rainbow, which brought a smile to my face, even if everything else was a dreary gray.

Surf's Up

Went to Pacifica to get a quote on some cabinets today and stopped to admire the immense waves that were coming in. Made me wish I'd brought my camera with me. Mother nature can be totally awe inspiring when she wants to be. I was mesmerized by the chaos and power of the waves until the cold drove me back to the warmth of the car.

And a Happy New Year!

Best of luck to everyone, and may you hold true to all your resolutions!

Personally, I can't wait for the year to get started. I still need to finalize a bunch of things for the house remodel, but can't since many of the stores and people I'm working with have been on vacation for the past week or so.
