The progress in the studio has been slow and steady. Al has been out there as much as he can, working on the electrical. It's been a bit more of a challenge than we thought because in order to finish up the wiring at the panel, he had to test every outlet and light in the house and re-label everything because very few of the original labels in the electrical panel were right. I think he's really close though and hopefully can call for the electrical inspection and the framing inspection this week or next. Then we can start insulating!!!
The outside is all done and beautiful. Here are the pics I took of it on one of the last sunny days we had.
I have to admit I'm getting pretty antsy to get my studio back. It's been almost 6 months now and I can't tell you how many times I've wanted to look something up in one of my sewing books (I keep having to check out books I own from the library because I can't get to mine) or fix a piece of jewelry or buy a something like zippers or velcro from Joann's because the ones I have are packed. And then there's the whole "sewing at the dining room table and cutting stuff out on the kitchen counter" which works in theory but not so well in practice--especially when 3 other people need the table space for their work and the counter is the only counter in the kitchen that is useable space for cooking. :) I really sound whiney, don't I? :)
That's not my intent, really! It's been pretty funny most of the time watching how this "hormone-driven mid-life person I don't recognize anymore" called me trys to deal with two of her biggest stressors--lack of organization and lack of space. Maybe my son could make a movie out of it. :)

It's almost there....no long now!
I was hoping to see some pics of the clothes you've been sewing. :(
That's coming later this week I hope. :)
