banished

[John Dirks Jr]

To the basement that is, with no respect. As long as I can get quiet to do my work it's ok with me. Any of you have similar arrangements?

Looks awesome to me, Smarties are my favorite food.

I also am banished to the spare bedroom. You're in better conditions than I am. You have cookies and I have to share with the cat.

When we built in 1999 we changed a small formal dining room into a reasonably-sized office with a 1/2 bath during the planning stages. I have little use for a formal dining room, and the 1/2 bath was great while I had a wife and a daughter in the house. [:-crazy]

However, I do have to share my cookies with a fat Basset every night.

Might want to return that stolen property, John. Feds are kinda harsh on that.[:-angel][:-angel]

Those chocolate chip cookies are good for you.

I have a large garage. I put up a 10x10 office with a large window in it. Heated and cooled.

Gives me the quiet I need when the grandkids are over (almost always).

Honestly, I have nothing to hide. It's a story, not a long one but I won't tell it anyway.[:-paperba

I have an unfinished office upstairs but that doesn't do me any good with 6 kids in the house and a wife who will interrupt me with every whim.

What I do is get up in the madrugada about a couple of hours before anyone else gets up to get any work done.

My house was an up/down duplex, but when the tenant left I claimed the upper apartment as my office. It's great: full kitchen, bath, sitting room with a TV. Now, however, we have a baby on the way and my in-laws are coming from Europe for a few months. My upstairs hideaway is being converted to a master suite and baby room. I'm now looking to rent office space somewhere.

Those postal bins are great. My wife's printing company had about 6-7000 of them for sorting/storing jobs. Anyone can get some just by asking at the local post office, but they do remain USPS property.

She downsized this summer, and we returned them to the local post office about a thousand at a time. There are still 20 or 30 kicking around, I may have to hang on to a few for a little longer.

Ah, come on, John. We love to read stories!

Did you ever get any respect when you were upstairs!

Come to think of it...

I'm not banished to the basement. I have a window with a view, but sometimes the view is obstructed.
