Office Moving Along!

Hey guys,

Just wanted to give a quick update.

Thanks to my wonderful, beautiful, awesome wife my office construction is moving along ahead of schedule. Last weekend was very humid and that made for less than perfect conditions for tapping and bedding the seams in the newly constructed room. Because of this, I couldn't do the tasks needed to advance to the next stage of construction and I was seriously bummed.

My wife is so awesome that while I was sleeping Tuesday (I work nights) she, having the day off, spent her entire day off finishing the walls for me. What can I say? She is truly amazing!

So, this weekend (I only have one day off) I will prime and hopefully start painting! After that I have to put down the floor and then do the finishing work (molding, etc) and then I can finally move in.

Once moved in, I can one again begin working on the movie!

I'm probably a couple weeks away but I can see the light at the end of the tunnel and it is all because of my wife!

Thank you sweetie!

I love you so very, very, very much!

Not Working on Movie, but Haven't Given Up!

Well, what could be harder than working nights and trying to make an animated movie at the same time?

How about building an office and working nights at the same time? Now, when I say “building an office” I don’t mean I’m picking a room in my house and moving a computer and a desk into it. I mean that I am building, literally, a floor, four walls and a roof. I mean really building, and because my new job has me working nights five days a week that means I have very little time to work on my Office of Solitude.

Consequentially, that means I have done absolutely no work on my movie during these last couple of months. That is disappointing to me, especially after my last posting. I really thought I’d be done by now and the truth is that I’m only half way finished.

So, for the foreseeable future, I’m not going to promise that I’ll be working on the movie. Not until I am officially moved in to my new office. So how long will that take? I’m not even going to promise anything on that. You’ll just have to keep an eye on the Xam and Power Blog and see.

In the meantime, I’ll give you some pics of the new office in progress. It doesn’t look like much, but when it is done it will be a thing of beauty.





Now, don't be quick to judge. Like I said, I have a lot of work to do... kinda like the movie!

Keep checking in. Hopefully you'll see more updates soon...
