Since we&#8217;ve moved into this house 16 years ago I haven&#8217;t really had a space to call my own. All my magic props and materials are in one corner of the basement which I set up as my &#8220;space&#8221; when we moved in. That space has never been conducive to rehearsal or actual use, just mostly storage. Not to say it&#8217;s not workable but with no walls I really had no way to set up the space to be functional. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So starting the second week of November we began construction. With the help of friends we&#8217;re doing it ourselves to save money. There have been some mistakes made, but nothing that couldn&#8217;t be corrected. The walls and electrical are in and this week we&#8217;re finishing up mudding the drywall so I can start on painting and getting the drop ceiling installed. Once that&#8217;s done I&#8217;ll call somebody to do carpet and I&#8217;ll finish out the room by installing trim and doors. Okay, after checking, it looks like I need to trim first and then do carpet. Whatever, I&#8217;m getting to the point I just want it done.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:18px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Aside from the construction, not much has been going on the last month. I&#8217;ve been working on setting up the two websites for our other ventures: <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/pastmagic.biz\/claireupthere\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/pastmagic.biz\/claireupthere\" target=\"_blank\">Claire Up There<\/a> and <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/pastmagic.biz\/doodlefaceskc\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/pastmagic.biz\/doodlefaceskc\" target=\"_blank\">Doodle Faces KC<\/a>. <br>The Doodle Faces site at least has a home page. Claire Up There just has a landing page and nothing else. I&#8217;ll get them done, but at this point it&#8217;s not a priority. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-rounded\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"488\" src=\"https:\/\/pastmagic.biz\/marvelousmatt\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/12\/Merry-christmas-1040x496-1-1024x488.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-618\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pastmagic.biz\/marvelousmatt\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/12\/Merry-christmas-1040x496-1-1024x488.png 1024w, https:\/\/pastmagic.biz\/marvelousmatt\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/12\/Merry-christmas-1040x496-1-300x143.png 300w, https:\/\/pastmagic.biz\/marvelousmatt\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/12\/Merry-christmas-1040x496-1-768x366.png 768w, https:\/\/pastmagic.biz\/marvelousmatt\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/12\/Merry-christmas-1040x496-1.png 1040w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>So there you have it. If I don&#8217;t have the opportunity to get back here before next month I want everyone of you to know I wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. May next year be easier than this one was.
