Thank you! It's a very, very relaxing space. I still can't believe it's finally done.
Ah, the pitter patter of tiny feet in huge combat boots. Shut up!

Very, although he apparently liked to 'supervise' the construction whenever noisy power tools were not being used.

My mom and my sister are coming to Chicago for the day tomorrow. I'm planning to show them around my office and take them for a meal, but I don't know what to do with the rest of the time they'll be here because the heat index tomorrow is going to be ridonk.

Send them to a museum! Or the American Girl store, whichever is more to their interests.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
That's a lovely room, in a way I'm coming to realise I just don't do lovely. My room is fairly tidy...for me. Now's as good a time as any for me to be photographing my apartment (fuck, I went another day without organising a cleaner or carpet cleaning--see, there could be better days)...god, vapid.
Anyway, I have one status report to write and one more check of my emails to make before I can call it a day.
My boss checked with me today to make sure I didn't tell my manager he didn't make me cry. Ha! No. I described it as "an incredibly illuminating discussion about many things, including the limitations we have on resources". My ambassador father would be proud.
My mother distinctly less so.
My replacement computer is supposed to arrive tomorrow, and I *have* to go in tomorrow afternoon, since there's a mystery all-IT event with drinking afterwards. That requires cameras. They say to bring your iPhones. What kind of IT department is that? Sometimes I despair of them...

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Love the room, Anne. The sitting/desk area is FANTASTIC.
