Here is a first in months. I am sitting here after midnight. Usually I’m in bed between 9 and 10. I’m up now listening to The Crown (S2 E5) and the howling wind. We’ve had a few days of really warm weather, and tonight it is turning a bit colder. We may have rain tomorrow.
Yesterday we hung up the window trimming on our freshly painted house (white replacement windows coming in June, and a screen door makeover soon). I stained and waxed a book shelf, and I hung up some lattice between our house and car port. And I haven’t slept yet, so I’m posting this very short sliver of life before I go to bed.
You have been so amazingly busy lately. I love seeing how your house is evolving. I hope you sleep well!
Sliver of life – love it, Denise. Things look to be coming together beautifully. I know it’s heartening to see the progress. Ongoing strength – and some good rest! – to you each day.
I love the cleanness of fresh paint, the smell of it, the newness of polished/stained bookshelves. Spring is in the air, and the dustbunnies of winter are hopping away, invaded by the pollen of spring. For Christmas, I got a Shark VacMop, the robot kind, and I used the mop feature yesterday for the first time. It’s amazing how just a little bit of cleaning inspires us. The smell of the cleaner makes me feel like a new person. And you inspire me to want to get outside and do some exterior cleaning now……
Denise, the house looks so good. I love the window trim and am excited for your new windows. You won’t believe the difference they make. I think you know I write my posts at night for the following day. When I’m home in MST, that means at midnight EST it’s 10:00 for me. As long as we’re in that 24 hour window, we’re following protocols. Those two hours make a difference.
Wow, that’s a long day, but the fruits of your labor are stunning. Plus you got a slice/sliver in! Nice work.
I am impressed with how you are just chipping away at all these household renovations – wow, Denise! You are so motivated. No wonder you are awake after midnight! Looks great! You must be so happy to feel this sense of completion.
Your hard work with provide joy for a long time! Great job!
