Because replacing a faucet and engaging in a futile, yet exhausting, effort to dig a hole in the back yard weren't enough, I also spent some time moving furniture this weekend. Now that all of the books that I'm not going to give away are in book cases, I have reconsidered the need for a guest room. I don't exactly have hoards of potential houseguests lined up on the front walk, but it is nice -- inviting, even -- to have a place where guests could sleep.
This meant moving the computer and its accoutrements out to the room formerly known as the library (a.k.a. family room). I think it was acquiring a rug for the room last weekend that helped me make up my mind: something about seeing the rug on the floor made me think that that the room would make a good study.
So now my computer has a new home, closer to the source of the DSL. And I rearranged the bookcases and filing cabinet in the former office to make room for a bed.
Now all I need to do is buy a couch, and then my futon can become the guest bed. (It has a pretty decent memory-foam mattress.)
Of course, buying a couch requires money, and I have other things to spend money on first. Like trimming the giant tree in the front yard before it drops branches on my roof. Or like fixing a garage door that stuck in the up position when I came home from work last week. Or property taxes.
But, hey -- at least I know what all my rooms are for now, right?
