I've been having quite a few busy weekends and haven't been able to post often on Sundays. Renovating I have dropped a teaser here a few times but here's the scoop finally - We are renovating a big chunk of our main level. We've been planning this for the past 6-7 months.

I went and borrowed the last two books of the Diary of a Wimpy Kid series. I somehow missed news of their release but I'm now looking forward to a rollicking time with them.Posted
