What a busy day. I took the day off from work in order to install the new floor in my office that I had been intending to install last weekend (see previous entries). With my nifty fearsome new saw, I made quick work of the floor. At 9am, the room was carpeted, and at 4pm, ta-da, there was wood on the floor. The only work that remains to be done are a few boards on the edge for which I will need to borrow use of a table saw, and the moldings, for which I’ll need to borrow a nail gun.

I managed to leave my computer desk in the room throughout the process, which was nice because I could play the morning’s recording of Dave, Shelly, & Chainsaw, my beloved radio show. After the floor was in, I moved in some of the big pieces of gear which have been sitting in the garage and family room all week. Now I just have to go through a ton of junk in the the garage, and sort it back into the room.

After dinner, Anna and I put together a new bike trailer I bought last night so that she can accompany me on bike rides. We’ll try it out in the morning after gymnastics. It should be a good way for me to get some exercise while giving Jen some time off.

Current status: sitting in the “back office” (backyard), wireless, enjoying adult beverage.
