Why has blogging been light?

While I don't find the act of blogging challenging or hard or even obligatory, I do need quiet.

I think that we have finished up the bathroom remodel.  I am about 99% sure of it.

Remember when I said it would take 3 weeks?  Well, it finished in 14 weeks.

Yes, it came out Gorgeous!  Thanks to the design insights of Leslie Kristen interiors, and the construction magic of Sunny Cal builders, it came together very nicely.

With construction happening, concentration takes a hit.  Not that I actually hover over the guys, but there is someone in my house creating havoc.

So, we went from this:






To this:







Was the time and effort worth it?  Yes.

The shower is expanded, and will accommodate me and a seat better in the future (if needed).  We have two sinks.  We have enough light to illuminate Pluto.  And we have two things that only a guy would appreciate:  A silent fart fan and a toilet that flushes like there is no tomorrow (that thing goes BOOM when you flush).

Two adults can actually get ready at the same time!

The colors are not those I would have chosen right off -- not that it is a problem.  Leslie K. Trasport has an eye for these things that we normal people don't have.

Thom of Sunny Cal builders worked super hard to sweat out the details -- and got them right on.

So yes, I am happy and most importantly, Momma is happy.

Now to get ready for summer vacation...

Still not focused on blogging...

Just been scampering around, seemingly doing nothing, but getting some things done.

The bathroom remodel is 98% done:  I can shit, shave and shower in one room!  The door needs to be replaced, and a threshold put in, but it works!

Went to the BMT reunion @ COH.  Had a nice time.  Sat with two other old guys that also had Multiple Myeloma.  We swapped stories (never trust a fart), gave advice (LOTS of water for cramps), and made each other feel OK to be surviving.

Didn't see many kids this time, which doesn't tear me up as much.  Old guys with cancer don't phaze me... Kids with cancer rip me open.


After that we went and had the Daddy - Daughter dance at Acacia School.  Had a good time, and only Caitlyn destroyed her dress with chocolate.

A busy life is a happy life.

I guess.

gotta take a nap - with the dogs.

Blogging? Who has time?




Construction on the master bath continues, with Jim friendly features being added.

The three week window has blown past double that, and hoping that it only reaches three times estimate.

Easter here has been canceled. Bunny time will be at Nana and Papa's. Next year we will be on the hook. Again.

I need a nap on my new bed.
