Please now set your "Funky MoJo Groove" to the "On" position...

Above, you will find a KO from this morning. It was taken at Horsefalls Beach, here in North Bend, OR. I'll try to get more Ocean stuff, and maybe something from the hills outside my granny's place.

Today I begin the rough-in plumbing for the loft bathroom.

I could have started it Monday, but instead I decided to do a quick repaint/recarpet, of an upstairs bedroom in the main house. This allows me to have a room (other than out in the loft) when visitors appear.

This became pertinant, when I discovered that my cousin Brandon and his wife Jaimie show up every Saturday night for dinner, and Sunday morning mass with my grandmother. And in lieu of the aforementioned loft living arrangement (many disadvantages), and to avoid slumber upon the living room floor, I figured a quick-o remodel was in order.

With all temporary living arrangements now squared away, I can at this point, concentrate on the orginal goal. The loft has been duly de-rodent-ified, de-buggified, and all blueprint plans have been reviewed, verified, modified, reverified, reauthorized, and now, ultimately, have final and complete approval for all construction commencement.
So, after I finish my morning mocha and wrap up todays blog update, I then head off to buy supplies.

Oh, and I have another round of....
