Time flies by and so much is unsaid and undone. We have essentially gutted the basement and had the recreation room and bathroom rebuilt. Claire and I painted the floors in all but the furnace room and I sealed the walls in what we now call the pantry. Today between the two family Christmas parties we cleaned out the last of the furnace room junk. Now we need to paint the walls and floors in there and then my daughter and I can set up the 4*8 train table that she is eager to get to work on. At least that is envisioned as an ongoing project.
Amelia is eager to build things and use her inate creativity to make it uniquely ours. One of the little joys in my life is her Saturday morning request to go down and see if the train store is open. She gathers favorite animals puts on an outfit that she deems to be a train outfit and tops it off with a pink train hat.
I also need to get everything put away so that my workshop can be established. Claire is getting me a table saw so we shall have to get to work on the armoires that I was working on in my mother's basement before I met Claire eight years ago. And so a New Year begins.
So much more to say but it is almost 11PM and i have to work tomorro.
