Sanctuary

The new unit as of mid-2010... (Info pending)

Name-Storming

Don't yet know what we'll be calling the place yet; starting with Sanctuary for now and seeing if it evolves -- mostly based on the obvious theme/connotations, and that the router is named Caritas. Yes, I'm a nerd and Joss-minion.

Free-think name possibles below:

• Sanctuary
• Second Church of Puppy Snuggles
• Chiesa Bonita
• The Tea House
• Something re: Rosaries/Stained Glass/Temple/Chapel/Nave.... Don't know where I'm going here....
• Feel free to add your ideas here. Churchy/sinful material welcomed; irony-cards are wild.

Photos

Most of the decor pictured is that of the previous tenant, a talented artist and steampunk enthusiast. She even makes masks; a woman after my own heart. We may commission a piece from her once we're fully settled in....

Sanctuary Shopping List

• Expanding yellow foam for mouse-proofing and insulation
• Felt furniture feet protectors (for the wood floors)
• Rubber bumpers for drawers and cabinets
• Freezer Shelf ala Container Store or similar
• (1-2) Over-commode chrome shelving units ala BloodBath or its ilk. (Both bathrooms have tiny-tiny footprints.).
• (1-2) Smart pet-gates with human walk-through capability -- damn things aren't cheap though, are they?!.

Caryatid-specific Shopping List

• Brolly-Coat-Hat Rack I'm in love with this exact one, and think I can get it cheaper on Amazon. I think this will be my house-warming present to self next week. Yes. NODNOD. Apt needs it for lack of closet near either entryway.
• Replace shot doormat in a style to suit guest entrance: something like this would match the coatrack.
• Boston Wood Bookcases
• Boston Wood Bed -- preferably based on design sketch sent in, quote pending (Photo upload pending.)
• Stationary Bike Converter (Long-term wishlist -- pending bike cleanup...)
• Replace deceased Sukka-Foo roomba (Long-term / high-cost wishlist item.)
• Little Giant Ladder (for cleaning, decorating, etc., brand-specific out of infomercial love and compact storage size.)
• NAS (Long-term / v. high-cost wishlist item; I'm just sick of pouring $$$ into an endless chain of external harddrives, constantly maxing out and replacing. Either get some Network Attached Storage, or build the world's mightiest daisy-chain.)
