I am giddy with anticipation for this week’s weather forecast. Sunny and 70s all week. Hello, outdoors. If nothing else, I will finish a few more chapters of my latest book while sitting on the patio ….

The weekend was busy with ten-year-old sports on Saturday (baseball win 14-13; soccer win 2-1). The soccer game was close enough to my favorite take-out (Moveable Feast) that we stopped by for some renovation sustenance. Sunday/Father’s Day was spent with chores, including running (yes, sometimes it is a chore), laundry, and yard work. At night we met up with the in-laws to celebrate Father’s Day. All in all, a nice weekend. And now it’s Monday – lots of work going on in the kitchen today. Hopefully, the cabinets will all be up, the drywall repaired, and countertops measured. We passed the plumbing inspection, which was good enough to proceed with all of the above. Hooray. With the cabinets up, it will feel that much closer to completion.

Late last week, I discovered another great new blog, and immediately subscribed at google reader. Broadway Paper is blogging! Written by Tracie, the owner, it’s a nice glimpse behind the scenes, both in-store and at home. BP is one of my all-time fav paper stores.

See you tomorrow!
