wimmhtw* 8.10

1. The basement is done! Well, the waterproofing is done (and just in time, as storms are coming). The basement itself is still a little torn up, but it should keep the water out. And we don’t have a deadline on getting it all put together the way we want, so that’s good.

2. Work has been tough this year. We have been getting things late, but we still have to meet our deadlines. But by Friday of last week, I felt like I had gotten a lot done. We got all our round 3 catalogs completed, and I made good progress on getting things ready for round 4. I am hoping this week will get us set up to get round 4 done with calm and grace. But even if things get hectic again, I had a good week where I felt in control and could breathe.

3. A simple dinner of macaroni and cheese. After some stressful weeks, we had a relaxing dinner of mac and cheese from a box, fresh French bread, and a quiet night in. It was so good that someone decided to stick his orange head in m bowl and get some for himself.
