Office demolition

Well, I finally remembered to take my camera, but the pictures didnt turn out too well. I'll still put them on here though. Today, Chuck came in near the end of school and started working again. He took DOWN the plywood walls and uncovered the gaping hole just minutes before the last bell rang. I was SO nervous. I did however run out to the car to get the camera to take a picture.... only to discover I had left it at home after downloading the last ones I took. So, I dont think I'll be able to get in on here at all. I hear talk of drywall tonight, so I'm not sure what I'll see in the morning.

I'm quite anxious to get it all done and the plastic wrap put away and the dust cleaned up and the floor clean and the clutter gone. I think the clutter and tight fit of everything is bothering me the most. Oh well. Chuck said by Christmas 2011 it should be done. I laughed cuz he was joking. He better be joking! I might have a nervous breakdown if he isnt!

This is the view from my desk. The door is open, and then so is the wall!

This picture shows the corner. Or lack thereof! These are my temporary plywood walls. With an additional stylish piece of plywood on the flood to block the gaping hole to the basement. I think my lovely bench is more of a barrier than a place to rest...or to await word from Headmaster Hoover!

I took this one from out in the hall. It is blurry cuz I was in a hurry so no one would see me looking like a tourist! You can just see the back of my chair in there. No privacy at all! Good or bad, I can see who is coming much earlier than I could before! And I got a call from a teacher in the basement who said she could hear me! YIKES!!! I have to try to remember to talk quietly. whatever!

And this one is from standing behind the counter. They will build a wall where the current painted drywall ends, and then I should be able to clean up and take care of things! Also please notice the welcoming lack of a ceiling as well. I like that feature a lot!

And yes, that is my cup of coffee, and I've needed lots of them! :) Luckily, Becky and I were smart enough to put a coffee pot in her office ~ where we can support our habit in the small amount of privacy left to us!

We'll see what new things tomorrow holds. Hopefully no plastic wrap!
