Good morning, New Day Cafe denizens.
Happy Caturdai! Yay!!
A Warm Welcome to the New Day Cafe open thread.
Happy day!
Please, grab a cup of coffee, or tea, and pull up to the large table here on the ether.
All are welcome to join the fun, the silliness, the conversations. If you don’t know...just ask! Some things really do require a bit of explanation.
There will be a few surprises along the way, all good ones, we hope.
We are here to keep building the Daily Kos Community.
We post Mon-Sun at 10:30 a.m. Eastern. On Sunday we go to the C!U!A! posting to show support for all the work being done to promote Democratic candidates/causes. Please to join us there, as well.
Pie fights will be met with outrageous ridicule and insults. Trolls will be incinerated and served at the next group BBQ. As briquettes.
To wickedly paraphrase Virginia Wolf, I do dream of an outdoor shed of my own. A place where I can write, paint, and make things with the use of a torch, hot iron, or a kiln.
A place all my own.
Sometime in the next few years, I hope to have such an outdoor structure [as some of the images I am showing], made of old, used windows, doors and other recycled parts and pieces. That’s what I want. It may be easier to build it attached to the house, as opposed to having it stand alone in the yard, somewhere. Or not.
The structure would have to have a sink [hence a water line], so that I can wash stuff. And electricity, so that I can use various electric drills and an electric soldering iron etc. It would also have to house one [or two] gas tank(s) and be able to accommodate flame torch use. At this point, it’s a dream. I have some parts of this in my basement already, and use them, seasonally. I house the flame torch in the outdoor stand alone garden shed. The torch use is still only an outdoor thing. Which limits me to summer activity or warmer temperatures in the winter. Or paying rental by the hour an a collective elsewhere for the use their torch.
The more I learn the more I grow, and want to have a space all for my self.
Here are some ideas I’ve looked at.
What I want is a combination of bits from all of these.
It’s still just in the dreaming stages…
