a good day

The contractor we were working with finally signed the separation agreeement, so we can now move on! Yay!

I am also working on two fun things. We finally have the linen cabinet installed in the bathroom, so I can now put away all the toothpaste, soap, shampoo, etc that has been sitting in a box on the floor for eight months. It is so nice to be able to just open the door and grab what you need rather than root through a box on the floor. I was also ending up with either none of something or 5 of them because there was no easy way to tell what I had. What a luxury!

I am also working on the coat rack/closet, which is also a small luxury. We've had no place to hang coats, or drop purses, backpacks, keys, etc so I am really looking forward to this. I also LOVE to organize things so this has been fun and rewarding for me.

We are also talking to a landscaper and general contractor about putting in our back door and deck, and we are really excited about those projects. These will be a real increase in our quality of life, as opposed to all the "necessary" projects we've done so far. So, all in all, things are looking up and we are making some progress.
