Today our sweet lil' Stinkerpot, our niece who, as a toddler, sat up w/ us late one night and told us the story of The Three Bears and the wolf who was "only dressed up like a wolf" so as not to SCARE us, turned 18 today. EIGHTEEN!! Something tingly comes over me when one of my people is suddenly old enough to vote. Stay informed, baby girl. Stay sweet, stay smart, and stay in touch w/ your Uncle T ... we remember when you were born, and he's fairly crazy about you. ;)

When I asked The Tall One what I should be "surprised" about today, he said ... "Tell 'em THE HOUSE IS FINISHED."
It was the renovation that wouldn't end. Bathroom to bathroom to carpet to tile to more tile to counter tops to more tile. I will miss my "werpin' men." And the last one left today w/o even saying "good-bye" ... sigh.
I MUST find a new project.
No surprise to The Tall One.

"Careless abandon" does NOT describe the Tall One! On that you are exactly on target! I'm remembering one more extensive project in this list: the GARAGE! How great is THAT??? And on that note ----I'll say that the entire re-do is perfectly perfect! Beautiful! And not said with reckless abandon - or - maybe so! :) Madre el
