The Bar
If you build it they will come. I started building a bar for our Piano room. I've always wanted to build a bar and I'm really happy with the progress and sucess that I'm having with it. I drew up a plan and went with Monika to buy the wood and I just started building. I hit a few snags, like for instance in my plan wich was scaled 10:1, I measured the big pieces but I didnt take in to account that the wood would be 28mm thick. or that the frame pieces were 8cm thick. I should be done in a couple of days so stay tuned for the finished product.

The Piano Room
So I decided to put a few pictures of things that went on during the days that i didn't post for that last week in August. I can believe that it is September already!! Happy Birthday to my brother Rob. he is 31! wow, I'm getting old. So I never thought about an adjustment period coming here to Vienna because I've vistited three other times but its a diffent story now. I think I am handling it very well. I'm gettin up early in the morning and keeping busy, having productive days. I sent out a mass email just a couple of hours ago and already I am getting responses from that. Its good to hear from peeps in the US. Things have been a little embarassing for them over there in the past couple of days, actually the past few years if you ask me. Its interesting to see things from over here. hmmm. Any way the phots you see below are of our living room that I have to build a bar for( that is my next project ) the second picture is of my work space and computer ( thanks to Alex, Monika's brother )then the third picture is a big tree I encountered in the woods by Myra Falls, the fourth picture is of the "sky walkers". Actually it's Alex and Ramona who took me on a nice day trip to Myra Falle and Hohe Wand for a nice hiking experience. They are, Monika's brother and his wife and our neighbors. The are also great and make me feel very welcome and wanted. So I leave you with that. Today i realized that this is my first Labor Day weekend away from the US. No barbeque's scheduled for my weekend? wow!

Been Busy Working on the Vienna Apt.
I've been painting, moving furniture, cleaning, and reorganizing our home. Monika and me have been really putting the place together. I will be keeping up with my weblog better after this next couple of weeks. Its really hard to do like my friend Martin. He post every single day for over three months now. I will attempt to post every day begining September. Right now I'm to scattered. Not to mention I dont have a working copy of the photo editor I was using so on days that i would at least post a photo, I haven't even been doing that. Not much time for computer time when I have more pressing matters all around me. Things have been good, I'm really happy with the progress that we are making. The next step for me as far as projects is building a bar for our livingroom. It will actuall be called the Piano Room.

OurLivingroom2
Today was back to work time. After my accident Saturday night I spent Sunday resting around the house. So today with the help of the amazing Alex and Ramona we layed down a new floor in what is to become our new livingroom. Its the old sleeping room of Monika's old room mate/friend, Erik. Anyway, we worked hard and long but it all got done. Alex is a wizard with his talble saw and his jig saw and Ramona is an expert at setting the pieces down. Not to mention at break time Romona cooked us some really good spinach and cheese palachinken. mmmmmm. Thanks again!!
