Monday Morning

It's snowing.

Again.

 

As tempting as it is to grouse about the weather

the moisture is very much needed and very much appreciated.

We're all safe, warm, cozy.

What's to complain?

 

I've already been out to shovel

built a nice fire

have clothes in the wash

dogs in and out several times...

 

Naphtali brought Aidan down on Saturday night

to spend his spring break with us.

The plan was for her to hit the road this morning

but the vagaries of  Midwestern weather will

keep her here a while longer.

 

She can either join Aidan and I in our planned activities

or we'll just work around her.

 

Some of those activities have already been adjusted
 because my kitchen is currently in three rooms,
 one of which is about a mile down the road.

 

Back at the end of February

we selected a new countertop for the kitchen.

Measurements were taken.

A check was written.

The kitchen was torn apart and the goods delivered.

 

Unfortunately, they read the measurements wrong

 and cut the hole for the sink off center.

Significantly off center.

 

Re-order.  Wait. 

 

 Tim connected water and a drain to one half of the sink

and we've managed for the last two weeks.
 

 

Last night we took it all apart, again, because

the crew was coming this morning to take away the
faulty countertop and finish the job.

They've been here - taken part of it away
and will return with the rest in a couple hours.
 

 

Aidan is doing some homework.
Naphtali is checking the road conditions.
The dogs are waiting to play in the snow.
An interesting day awaits us all.
