Please report to the office

Oops. I forgot to report on our office. I was re-reading the published blog (the one I just posted about the miniature horses) when I recognized its glaring absence.

Last weekend (I think -- they're all blurring together now) we woke up realizing that we needed a shelf for our office. That was the ticket to making it more usable.
Actually, I think it was a little more panicked and a little less about the shelf. It was more, "WE NEED TO GET THESE BOXES OUT OF HERE AND MAKE THIS ROOM FEEL LIKE A PART OF THE HOUSE!"
So Jesse headed to the BOB (Big Orange Box) for the necessary hardware.
An entire day of sorting and cleaning and organizing later, this is what we have.

Notice the bookshelf behind Jesse. Cheeba's bathroom is strategically placed here - out of sight (and cleaned daily to remain out-of-smell.)He's a very hard worker.
The office bed. Every office needs a bed.

I also forgot to mention that in addition to the windows that Jesse made beautiful in the previous post, we headed to BOB to order our cellular (honeycomb) shades! We're taking it window by window because they're pretty expensive - but they're super energy efficient and should help us with our living-room-overheating-problem. They'll be delivered in two weeks!

Also, it's 11:00pm here and Jesse's working hard on his homework. He took a break to read my first post a few minutes ago then disappeared. He reappeared then moments later I heard a loud "BANG" -- the post reminded him that he left a shim in the window and wished he hadn't so he went to the garage and came back with a mallet and a 2x4 to bang it down level with the others! At ELEVEN O'CLOCK AT NIGHT.
oh dear.
