"before" pictures"
The day before we had a wonderful Thanksgiving dinner at their apartment overlooking DC. Well, not actually the White House and monuments, but some of the city. It was a treat. All I brought were two pies: the required pumpkin and a cherry. And as usual there were leftovers.
On Sunday G and I drove back to Ohio. This has to be the heaviest traveled day for the whole year. Traffic stopped or went extremely slow for hours. But we arrived home safely and are on with our life. My big project for the coming months is to replace the flooring on all of the first floor except the bedroom. That requires choosing counter tops for the kitchen, flooring for the kitchen and carpet for the living room/dining room. Pleased be advised that this may be the topic for many future blogs. A friend advised that I enjoyed this, do it with joy and have a good time doing it. I will try to remember that advice .

That sounds like a huge job - but the rewards will be just as big!
woah! You are going to replace the flooring by hand, yourself?
Alexis, my mother had more sense than my father and me (or clings less tightly to each dollar). She will be making the choices, but hiring someone to do the work.
