Well, it turns out that shortly after I made the last post, we went out on the Quest To Find A Bumpy Road again. This time was much more difficult, because most of the roadway snow is now melted, and one needs to drive slower (on gravel roads) due to the slick surfaces. So, we spent about a half hour doing that, then came home.

I’ve decided that my big project of the day is to get the old closet door covered up in the office here. See, before we did the bathroom project, there used to be a closet in the office. That closet went away to provide room for a slightly larger bathroom (the old closet space is now where the bathroom vanity resides). This was fine, but I just had an old scrap piece of sheetrock covering up the old doorway.

So, I took that down, cut a good replacement piece, drilled some holes for voice/video/data wires (which I will run later today to this location), and cleaned up the area. I’m waiting for some pet odor/stain remover stuff to dry (which will take a few hours) right now, but once that’s dry, I’ll get that good sheetrock in place and hopefully get it taped up. Then it’s just the minor work (including texture and paint, once all the mudding is complete) and it’ll be in good shape.

It’ll be nice to have that particular item taken care of; it really then means I have no good excuse to not do some work in the basement and get the strucutred media enclosure up and ready to go (because I’ll then have four rooms worth of voice/video/data wiring to terminate there).

Anyway, I’m sure I’ll ramble more later…
