the Snuggery

That's what I now call the space I'll be using as my studio, once we move in. We should be in by the end of the month, I can't wait to get out of this place. Nothing but negativity and bullshit here.

There is something interesting about this new house though, the current owner has mentioned that he's owned it for about 40 years now. But the house is much older than that. In the basement under the stairs, you can see that previously there had been some work done to install the 'modern' heating ducts in the house. At this one point, where they have dug through the old stonework wall, which is quite thick actually, you can see something that looks like a short staircase (if you shine a flashlight in there), where a staircase shouldn't be. Actually nothing should be there. I get the feeling something has been filled in or covered up. I'll investigate more at another time.

As for the Snuggery, it needs a little cleaning up, but I have plans for this little space. I'll write more about it once things are all set.

Basement studio.....

We'll be heading over today to do a little touch up cleaning @ the new flat. To the left is a photo of part of my new underground studio area, needs a little work. This house is about 100+ years old, and I think once reworked a little, it'll be quite nice. On one of the outer walls is an etching of someones initials and a date of April 23rd 1919, it's questionable whether this is legitimate. There is another dated 1911, which is even more doubtful. So far I don't feel anything negative @ this place, like I did when we were working on/moving into the house we're currently still in. Time and time again it's been proven I should listen to my instincts, you would think I would listen to them more often than I do. Oh well, we'll hopefully bounce back. Right now I'm thinking whether or not I should leave the thin carpeting down there, or pull it up and just paint/seal the floor. Hhhmmmmmmm.....
