This has been a week of improvements - some small and easy, some large and complicated, all making life just a little better.

We ran out of caulk, so we have a little caulking left to do and some paint touch-ups, a towel hook or two to hang, […]

I don’t have much to show off. As usual, our work on the house comes in infinitesimal bursts, spaced out by weeks of utter inactivity. The latest burst included a weekend of painting the bathroom door and window frames, priming the ceiling, and hanging the medicine cabinet.
It felt so good to do something […]
