The above shot is how my "new" desk looked before I got to work on it this weekend. I say "new" because it's new to me but this wood appears to have been on this earth a long time before I got to it! It's actually reclaimed wood that my dad rescued from an old barn. I love that this desk is going to have such a better story than "yeah I went down to Pottery Barn, dropped a couple grand, now I have me a nice workspace." This desk is going to be almost free and my dad and I made it together and it's custom! 
This shot is what it looks like now. It's still not quite done. There are a few more steps before it gets to meet its new home in my fuschia office!

Hi Amanda, I really love your blog. This is your father-in-law. Mikey sent me the link a couple of days ago. He must have read a little of it, since he got the link right. I am really impressed. You have real talent. Great pictures! Excellent writing! Mikey is a little like his dad. I'm not much for reading either, except for the real technical stuff... like IRS publications and Government contracts, etc. However, I was able to make out the last word of his "chicken-scratch" -- it looks like "lunch" to me. He left you some lunch money. Keep on blogging. Your're doing great. Love to you always - Paul
