Notes From Ali:
A large majority of building is done for the time being. However, we’ve got lots of little things piling up. Hanging mirrors, hanging other such items, painting door and wall trim, putting those in place, lots and lots of cleaning. We need someone super tall and with a super tall A frame ladder to put up the insulation in the med room (we couldn’t fit the lift in). The garage door is KILLING me–it’s hard to open and close and I need it fixed, though I’m pretty sure it’s just the bottom line that’s the problem. If someone with a truck can deliver a pallet jack for us that’d we super helpful. Lots more HUGS to our lighting goddess for giving us temporary lighting while we get all the electrical going. And applause for all of Steve V’s hard work with Don and the electricians to give us permanent lighting!! They’re due to start this week Keith is our new chair god. He’d been out of town, rode in and realized we were mid-move: suddenly Edges has our brand new beautiful chairs on their way to our butts.
YAY I am so excited to know that we’ll all sit more comfortably and be able to put out pretty chairs in our fabulous new dungeon.
Someone saw me yelling at the garage door and said sweetly, “maybe you should put it on the list that you’re in need darlin”. So here I am!
A new garage door that actually rolls up onto itself, along with a walk-through door in it that opens outside (so we don’t have to spend the money to redirect the current door that opens into the building and is in the concrete wall!). I believe Tom Wood is pricing out what’s needed for that exactly, but it would make life at Edges much safer, simpler, and give us more suspension and stage room!
