Are you renovating your kitchen?

Instead watching youtube videos that might work for classes.<br /><br />Cooking/Eating: I made Buttermilk pies before the kitchen got made unworkable in the "re-do". Now...mostly nothing.<br /><br />Listening to: Monnie and I listen to lively Praise and Worship music all the way to Fenton whenever she goes with me. Waves of Mercy being our mutual favorite.<br /><br />Striving towards: Organization at work and home, which means everything is totally destroyed and torn up at both places!<br /><br />Looking forward to: Having the kitchen done! Oh, it will be so amazing!<br /><br />What Monnie is up to: Very elaborate and baroque art projects. Memorizing prayers such as the Hail Mary and Our Father...rhyming everything she says, and making it into a song.<br /><br />What Anastasia is up to: stressing everyone out in her efforts to cope with the October "Traumaversaries".<br /><br />What Sergei is up to: Complaining non-stop about back pain....which arose just as he lost his insurance (via my job change)....now he's got to apply for Medicaid. Awful timing.<br /><br />What Maxim is up to: Working part time on the grounds at the hotel, where he was working many more hours indoors. He seems to be able to parlay any job opportunity into less than it might have been. Frustration!!!<br />Trying Againhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16397229079794765624noreply@blogger.com
