Where to hide during a home renovation?

Picture 3.pngAs you well know, I am a work from home small business owner. Today, our interior designer, SheRee (not Sherry) presented her design ideas for our living room, dining room and kitchen.

I was distracted because not only was The Pet Set phone and fax ringing off the hook, but because it struck me that a). refinancing may become an issue and b). exactly where am I supposed to conduct my business, while all of this beautification is going on?

Simple you say? just move my office to a nother location in the house, right? No-can-do, because my computer (which is how I communicate to 90% of my clients) is run on cable and there’s only one connection in the whole house.

Much of the work will be done on the level of the house where I work every day. Picture it, dust, noise, a twitchy Labrador Retriever, chaos…

My question is: would you stay or would you go? Stay and endure, or rent a house nearby?

I’m hoping to stay, but let me know.

    Hm… that’s a tough one. Maybe rather than rent another house, you could have another cable connection installed, or buy a wireless router? Then you would be able to set up your office in another part of the house. Just a thought :)

    Hi Karine,

    A wireless router…that could be the answer…yes because once the renovation is complete we won’t really need the second cable connection, I don’t think…but I will look into this.

    Thanks so much!

    No problem! I invested in a wireless router myself a few months ago, and I’m really glad I did. The freedom to set up your computer(s) anywhere you want is awesome.

    Any idea where I should start looking for one?

    Eric…

    I just found your blog today, and I have to say… I LOVE the placemat idea! We just finished our kitchen except for a few things, most importantly the tile backsplash. Placemats are such a clever temporary solution!…
