Another Milestone

But I won't bother with a picture to commemorate it. When we first moved after we sold our Vegas house we rented a place with a 3 car garage. Other than the old VW which we stored in the garage, we could only fit one car because of all the "stuff" we brought with us from the old house. When we moved again last fall to a house less than half the size of the first rental and with a rather conventional 2 car garage, we managed to fit one car in. Yesterday morning I got up and opened the garage door and felt a whiff of coolish air, which is not normal during the summer months in Las Vegas. I was so inspired I spent an hour or so rearranging the junk in the garage and David was actually able to park his car next to mine when he came home last night. He could hardly get out and walk around the car, but it was a momentous occasion nonetheless. Just wanted to share--imagine parking your cars in your garage! Someone commented that we build these nice garages for our cars and fill them with junk and park our expensive cars outside; how perverse is that! Not that I have expensive cars, but they are more valuable than the junk that occupies the garage.

Home Decor Slow

We finished the Daybreak house with no mirrors in the downstairs bathrooms; I just don't like the giant plate mirror look. Nine months later, the master bath finally has new mirrors, and I, for one, was so impressed I needed to take a picture and share the results. Thanks to my two sons-in-law, Brent and Cameron, it all happened in a matter of minutes. (I don't have a "before" picture so you can see the dramatic difference--sorry.)
