Studio space?

[ellid]

Something I've long wanted is a studio of some sort. I don't mean an artist's studio, but a room somewhere with a desk, a chair, bookshelves, and privacy so I can finally, finally, FINALLY write the big, bold book on medieval quilting. I've been looking in a very desultory way for a few months, but given that a) I have a very limited budget (around $100, $150 tops), and b) don't want to be more than five minutes from the house, you can see that there's a bit of problem with finding something.

My quest may be over.

I decided, just for giggles, to check Craigslist. And what do I find but a composer in Florence, about five minutes by car, who's looking for a third person to share a penthouse space for $138/month?

Seriously.

There's one very inadequate picture, but I've e-mailed the composer with some questions about equipment, AC, and so on. It would be a bit of a stretch financially, but if the space is decent and they let me keep my books there, it's worth it.

My God. A *studio*. Yes, I'd have to share it, but even so....

I'm trying to set up a tour on Saturday before my next docenting shift. We'll see.

And in health news -

I'm about 95%. Eating more fruits and veggies is proving extremely beneficial, to say the least....

*crossing fingers for you*

I haven't read back so I had no idea you were ill, but glad to hear you're improving. Fruit definitely helps. I've gone up to three servings a day and I definitely feel the difference.

Not ill - I had hemorrhoid surgery on the 12th. I was in a lot of pain at first, but it's much, much better now.
