This has been a very long week for me. I’m pretty much dead at this point and feel like a walking zombie.  I glad the weekend is here to finally be able to relax by getting some work done.

Why was it so long?  Easy, I did something that I’m never, never, never, never going to do again.  Recarpet a house that I’m living in.  It looks good now that it’s done, but boy is it a lot of work.  It was almost equivalent to moving to a new house.  The only thing missing was the drive to the new location.  Everything had to be moved out of every room that is carpeted, including my office.  It’s a lot of work when you’ve lived in the place for 8 years.

Things are almost back to normal now.  Almost everything is set-up.  All that’s really left is unpacking the box that contains all of my desk stuff (pens, hole punch, etc.).  I also still need to haul away the trash.  It’s amazing how much junk accumulates over the years.

One nice side effect at least is my new office.  Since I had to tear down my desk along with everything else, I took the opportunity to set it back up in another room.  It’s going to take a little getting used to since few of the things I’m used to having on hand are still in the other room.  I have a lot more space and I was able to set up one of my bookcases that had been in the garage, so I think the plusses will outweigh the minuses.
