RACHEL GET HOME!

That's all I gotta say 'bout that.

I'ts been busy

......................Not so much on the CAD front, but elsewhere. Work is crazy. Crazy good, you ask? In my trade, work is always good. Crazy involves putting out fires, tying up loose ends and keeping people happy. Crazy.
CAD. I have had a project for a high end bathroom redesign. Print done, probably have the job as well. About 40K. Did a kitchen plan for a job I already had (drew it just for reference). About 70K. In talk to draw an 1800 square foot ranch plan- may be involved in the build. About 180K. Another ranch plan later in the spring- draw and build. I'm negotiating to review a builder's plans drawn elsewhere- by someone I know, who works on the same program as I - and I hope to convince him I might as well be drawing for him myself, maybe a dozen plans a year if it works out.
Can't yet figure out how to insert PDF or other files not images into this blog, or I'd give you a gander- I must ask Sarah.
I'm just getting started on a project in speculation to draw up 3 sample plans- complete- to roll up and peddle, on their face or as examples. 1) 2,000' 3 bdrm. ranch, 2,600' Cape Cod, 3,000' Georgian. We'll see how that goes-
On another note- Nick is finally bringing his band, "DriveTrain" to Peoria- or near- Pekin @ Goodfellas- 1414 8th street. Friday, March 4. Doors open around 7pm. $5.00 cover. We need to fill the place. Invite 400 of your good friends- we gots the room!
