I think I can say that Fall is finally here. Or at least the crisp Fall air is finally here. The colors not so much. We still haven't gotten around to any Fall activities, and at this point, I'm not sure when or if we'll do them. Renovation updates We are almost at the halfway point into our ground floor renovation. The flooring is almost done, cabinets are ready to be setup, appliances are here. It's exciting to be on the other side of the renovation when things are getting finished. There's still easily 2.5 weeks worth of work left in the kitchen, and another 2-2.5 weeks for the master bathroom, so mid-November is likely when we are done with the renovation. Assuming no delays. Flooring coming along All of us are pretty exhausted at this point. Walking up and down the stairs to pick items from the makeshift pantry and then cook on the main floor gets old very fast. I have been able to work from home without issues and I'm grateful for that. I've set up m
Anyone out there still stuck in the cold? Not to rub it in, but it's been warm and pleasant out here on *this part* of the East Coast at least. We actually went out the other day dressed in single layers and it felt splendid, seeing as we ditched all those heavy jackets that was a literally a fixture on ourselves. Yesterday though, almost as if the weather was done with too much relenting, it was horribly windy. My family and I went to visit the D-Day Memorial in Bedford and we were literally flying across the circular structure.
I hope this stays. Because it means it's time to get on the road and begin the road trips! Sad though that all this unseasonal climatic changes have us to blame.
I've been having a brilliant reading week. I finished The Weird Sisters by Eleanor Brown - did I mention that I absolutely loved it? - and followed it up with two graphic novels - Fist, Stick, Knife, Gun by Geoffrey Canada and Stitches by David Small - and am now enjoying Behemoth by Scott Westerfeld (sequel to Leviathan). I hope to get to one more book by the end of the day.
You might have noticed that I've shaken up my sidebar a bit. I've been feeling that it's a bit cluttered, and was not too happy with some of the widgets. Moreover, I'm concerned that ever since I installed Disqus, my blog has been a little slow to load (anyone else felt the same way?). So I'm trying to make it speedier.

What's happening in the buzzing blogosphere on this beautiful Sunday?

Loved Stitches, and would like to read Weird Sisters as well.
Have a great week.
I agree, Disqus takes a while to load, but it's so much better than the custom Blogger comment system. It's so easy now to comment and reply!
