Mostly wrapped up

As the weekend comes to a close (there is always something a little sad about Sunday evenings for me), I look forward to the two two-day work weeks ahead of me. I'm choosing to view it this way, rather than focusing on the inconvenience of the 4th falling on a Wednesday. We had a very nice and mellow Sunday with Meisa, involving lounging about and eating BBQ tofu (everyone in our house loves this recipe... today I made it with some cashew butter and it still turned out nice), cornbread, and sauteed spinach.

Friday evening, after we picked up Meisa, we went and picked out our appliances. (White.) Yesterday, we went and picked our cabinets. (Also white.) We're pretty excited about the anticipated layout and look of the kitchen. After the French lunch, we went and picked out floors for several rooms. I'm not overly thrilled with what we picked out. What's up with everything trying to look like granite and other natural substances? I say, embrace your artificiality! Whatever happened to solid colored vinyl tiles with geometric patterns? Luckily, we're not locked into these choices, as I think I can find what I want through another vendor.

Outstanding? An appointment on Thursday to pick out fixtures - plumbing and electrical. I'm feeling much more on top of things than I was 48 hours ago, and that's a good way to end the weekend.

You know I love this home remodeling stuff, so for the record, I am really, REALLY excited to see it halfway-done and totally-done. Yay!
