We are almost there. Its chilly this morning so the fire feels really good.

Our kitchen used to be the lightest room in the house. Now, with the new windows, and fewer walls, the rest of the house is brighter than the kitchen.

We bought our paint and hope they will finish the componding in time for us to be able to finish the painting by the end of next weekend.

Both of us are ready to start getting back to normal. A shower in the house would be a great start. I keep looking at the pond, wondering if I should just jump in, rather than drive to the "Y". 42 degrees mmmmm.
