Wait, I'm wrong. Should've done better than this. Please, I'll be strong. I'm finding it hard to resist, so show me what I'm looking for. Save me, I'm lost. Oh Lord, I've been waiting for you. I'll pay any cost, just save me from being confused. Show me what I'm looking for.

Carolina Liar - Show Me What I'm Looking For.

So I've taken on a GIANT project. Partially because I need something to do, and mostly because I need more space. I don't know if I can even do it, last night when I started it seemed impossible. I'd started working only to realize that it's just way too much. But after conferring with the mother this morning, I think it may be doable, it's just going to take a lot of hard work. Which I'm up for I think.

The plan is, to clean out the storage room. Not only is it so packed you can barely walk in the door, but it's also a fire hazard. Things are just thrown in there (that's mostly my fault), and if it gets hot like it did last summer this summer... it's just a fire waiting to happen. But I intend to clean it out like... completely. There will still be things in there obviously, but I'm hoping to get it to the point where you can actually walk around in there and find things.

Part 2 of the plan, from here on out referred to as: Operation EBS (Extend Brandi's Space) is to convince Dwight to let me do this and then move all the things in Michael's living room, into the storage room. The white table will still be functional because I'll have cleaned out the storage room. There won't be any more cat hair all over it all, and Puck won't be eating and destroying all that stuff. So that part is a win win.

Part 3 of Operation EBS, after convincing Dwight that it's no skin off his nose to let me go through with all of Operation EBS, is to finish the wall where there is currently a doorway. Then, Open the wall that connects that room, to my room, making it an extension of my room and therefore giving me more space. or the other way around.. open the wall and then close the other.  I currently have 3 rooms full of crap, shoved into one. And it sucks. Then I will finish the ceiling (because it isn't done), base boards and trim and all that noise, paint, pull up the carpet, stain and varnish the wood on the floor, wait for it to dry and then move in my bed and probably dresser.

Part 4 of Operation EBS, will be to finish the room I already have. Put up base boards and cover the rest of the outlets, trim on the doorways, paint, pull up the flooring and stain and varnish the wood. In sections, obviously.

It's going to be a LOT of work, but it'll be worth it. My room is so cramped and I'm up there all weekend by myself it mine as well be worth looking at, ya know? I don't know how I'm gonna get all that done, but It has to be before it starts getting hot again. I wish I had some help :( but oh well I guess. I can do it. I know I'm probably gonna get mad a lot though haha. And I'm sure Puck is REALLY going to be in the way.

OH! I may also add a new window... its sooo dark in there. I have one window and it's mostly covered by the window A/C So I get pretty much no natural light or air. I need light.. and air. Man, I wanna work on that stuff NOW... but I'm at work :( lol. I'm suddenly motivated again. But it's gonna be great and hopefully Dwight will agree to it. I don't see why he wouldn't though because it's nothing that's going to be bothersome to him. I'm doing everything AND he gets his storage room cleaned.

Anyway I'm gonna go, I need to actually work, I just wanted to talk about the current plan. I think it'll be good if I actually get any of it done lol.

Cya,
Brandi Evans
