i think i am supposed to be annoyed with this

but i can't be. i just can't.


way to commit, little guy...
we're making progress with the floors downstairs. any minute now, our basement will look like a yoga studio. i wouldn't normally choose such light wood but when one lives partly underground, one needs to think outside the box and lighten things up a bit, yos. our backs are sore and we have matching wounds on our right hand middle fingers. but it will happen. it will.

one thing i love is just how many things i have learned to do over the last year. neil kind of already knows how to do everything. i can cook a mean tarragon chicken...this is no surprise. but putting down wood floors, tiling a bathroom, taping and mudding sheetrock....who knew? and it is actually quite fun. when it is fun, that is. i don't like sore backs and bloody fingers.
