Independence

I suppose the sunset here in Independence is often going to look lovely, so I’m likely to post it regularly! Oh well …

We’ve been moved in at Independence for a week now, and we’ve got much of our new home sorted out, including my office. At 8002, I had one 4×2 shelf of “Expedit” from IKEA for storage and found it attractive and useful so wanted more in the new office.
Then I read that IKEA is discontinuing the Expedit line, so we headed over to our more-local-than-in-Massachusetts IKEA to get more. We had to go twice (our first trip last Sunday found a lot of out-of-stock), but now I’m nicely set with a complete wall of IKEA shelving!

By amazing chance, the six Expedit units precisely fit that wall, with less than 1/4″ play to the baseboard trim on each side. I’ve not finished putting things away yet, and I might get some more drawers (which easily install in the squares) …
And I don’t think the TV will stay there, just a quick experiment.

We also sorted the office lighting; a second unit above the computer was needed:

I need to get a different desk setup, right now there’s only space for one computer – the project continues!
