First of all, let me apologize for not posting this past week. Life gets busy sometimes and I'm not always able to turn on the computer.We've had some potential bad news about our new sink. There was a mix up in the ordering process and we may have to wait another 8 weeks before it …

I’m progressive but don’t support all “progressives”. If you consider yourself a Republican and/or is a member of the GOP - fuck you and go to hell. I’m an application developer. I enjoy plucking the strings of a classical guitar, strumming a tenor ukulele, and reading a good book. I have a special interest in nutrition. Pro tip: it’s the refined carbs and seed oils, stupid.
If you support Trump - go fuck yourself.
Let There Be Light!
As you can see - the electricians were here today. We now have lights in the bedroom...and the closet...and the bathroom. The electricity is humming. Life is good.
Color My World
We selected three colors to try in the bedroom - all very similar. Adam painted all three on different walls - after a little bit of mulling we selected the final color. I have to say that any of the three would have worked for me. It's a pale green type color - hard to …
Sweeeeeeet!!!

Spectacular!
It's early morning but wanted to share pic of porch. The dream is coming true. Ciao until later.
Our Porch – A Southern Tradition
One of the things agreed upon for this remodel was that Lisa would get her porch. It was non-negotiable. There was to be a screened porch - period. And friends, that dream is coming true. Above is an artist's rendition of what our porch will look like. This artist has captured what we imagined the …
Tin Roof Installation
What is it? why, that's our metal roof. The roofers laid out the pieces, transferring the roof measurements and trimming it before installing it into place. A look at the next few pics and you'll see this beautiful roof. We're hoping it will be finished next week. The final piece to the window trim is …
New Rules for Lead Paint
One of the reasons we didn't see Mr. Contractor very much last week was because he was in class learning about how to manage working on older homes that might have lead paint. Some of you may have read in the Gainesville Sun about the new law that went into effect for homes built before …
