AWOL

Obviously, moving back into our newly remodeled house has posed new challenges. I haven't blogged in over a month for a myriad of reasons, some of which include:
  • Still a ton of work to do on the house, including flooring in 2 BRs and the hallway; exterior painting, installing cupola and weathervane, baseboard, doorknobs, firing up gas fireplace, installing dimmers and a couple of additional light fixtures......the punch list goes on and on.
  • Unpacking. We have over 100 boxes and not all of our storage spaces are constructed. No shelving in the pantry or linen closet, etc.
  • End of school and the flurry of related activities.
  • No more free babysitting, grocery shopping and cooking from the parental units.
I think the last one is the worst :-)

But it's been great being back in the neighborhood, having playdates for the kids, having friends over to check out the new house, and WALKING to school!
