Speaking of IKEA… the furniture we purchased was for the home office. When Wendy and I moved into the house here over four years ago we hobbled the home office together with door slabs and bricks. While functional, the office became a dumping ground for clutter and it was time for an upgrade.

So, we made a quick turn-around trip to the frozen tundra in sub-zero temperatures last weekend. We spent much of Saturday night and a good part of Sunday assembling and arranging. Since I spend most of my working hours in this room at this desk, it feels good to have a nice workspace!
