• Moving Objects

  Finally, a month late and three slipped ship dates, they arrived.  They arrived early too, for that matter.  The hutch and dresser made it here okay.  The movers were not happy about having to get that hutch upstairs to my room though.  It's heavy.  And the doors don't come off (which I should have asked them to make them). 

  And from about 9:30am until I quit around 5:30pm, I emptied out my old dresser and desk extention and began to absorb eveything into the new pieces.  There's a few mods I see that I will have to make on the hutch, that I didn't think of to begin with (a sliding board for the tower itself would have been smart, as would more space cut out of the rear panel for wiring), but all in all, I'm quite happy with them.

  

  That's the dresser.  About twice as big as my previous one.  Even so, I got rid of a bunch of clothes at long last.

  

  That's the computer hutch , next to my fireplace.  To the left, the black garbage bag is full of clothes for Goodwill.   The white, shoes.  You can see my old desk on the right side of the picture.  I think I'm going to be hanging onto it for a while.  I'm only putting computer-y stuff in the hutch, some of which was in the desk.  Trying to make the desk more, um, desky, with stationery, pens, papers, pastels and my much neglected art supplies.

  

  Here's the open hutch.  You can see the Green Machine (i.e. my new PC) on the bottom left.  Yes, it's glowing.  With my new mac-daddy monitor and super speakers, I'm in gamer wet-dream heaven.
