SURPRISINGLY, THE COMPUTER MOVE WENT WELL:))

OUR NEW COMPUTER STATION:))

Another sticky day as the humidex climbed once again & turned people like myself into walking buckets of paste. No problem for people with dry skin but for those of us with oily skin, humid days are not a nice thing!! OH OH.....I'M ABOUT TO GET ER STUCK REAL DARN GOOD!!

I didn't waste any time getting at my computer station move this morning & Kelly didn't waste any time making a few phone calls to make arrangements for back-up. Figured I would buy a 50' cable & hook it onto the existing cable & then run the cord along the bedroom floor, around some corners, out the door, down the hall, around some more corners into the sunroom, around some more corners & finally ending up somewhere behind the computer. Or, I could try to run the cable straight across the width of our unit underneath through a spider infested cob webbed crawl space. That would mean dynamiting a hole in the floor somewhere behind the computer to bring the cable up. Kelly knew better & quickly phoned the cable company & they said they would re-route the cable PROPERLY for $20.00. The cable alone would have cost me that so for sure we'll have the cable company run a proper line to the sun room Tuesday morning. And for sure they will do a much better job than I ever could have. STUCK......GOING TO HAVE TO DO ME A BIT OF THINKING HERE

MANEUVERING THE DESK INTO PLACE.....GOOD THING IT'S CARPET ON THE FLOOR

Before leaving for work this morning Kelly told me not to try & move the heavy computer desk on my own. She said to wait until she got home from work later in the day, so I knew I had to work fast to get that desk moved & set up before she got home later. She had reminded me of all the trouble the 2 fellows had trying to get it in when they delivered that desk about 6 years ago. Doorways in these mobile units are much narrower than an ordinary house. Only 24" to be exact & the width of the computer desk was exactly 24" plus a wee smidgeon. Well, didn't take me long to get the desk totally wedged two thirds of the way through the doorway. I had to reach deep into my mechanical male mind & call up some superior brain cells to put to-gether a smattering of higher reasoning exclusive to all us guys.......brute force!! Broke a piece of door molding but I 'got er done:))' CHECKING OUT THE SYSTEMS BEFORE SHOVING THE DESK BACK INTO PLACE

The rest of the move went pretty smooth & I was able to get the computer, printer, sound system, web cam, etc all moved & set up again long before Kelly got home. Even got the hanging overhead lamp installed. In fact, once I had everything up & running & looking good, I took some pictures & sent them to the head cheese herself. Figured it would ease her day if she knew the job was done & she didn't have to come home to a big moving mess. I like when things work out well like that:)) I am now sitting here at the computer in the sun room watching the birds flying around with one re-curring thought going through my mind over & over. Why didn't we do this years ago when we first had this sun room put on!!!!!!!!! Ohhhh, the workings of the human mind...............:()

All the above photos were taken with a 28mm wide angle lens so the sunroom actually appears bigger than it really is.
