Brain Dump

• Kitchen reno starts Monday.  I guess if you want to get technical, it starts this weekend since we are clearing everything out and removing the appliances, cabinets and countertops.
• My sister is coming in town tomorrow evening.  Welcome to Atlanta, now help me pack up my kitchen!  :)
• I have a lot to do and have been doing a lot since I got home from a quick jaunt to south Florida this weekend.  Literally, non stop.  Well, I did sit down to watch True Blood on Monday night, but other than that, I've been going going going.  (Side note: that was the weirdest True Blood yet.  So silly.)
• I built the bed from my last post by myself.  I'm the bomb, and yes, I gave myself a pat on the back.  ;)
• I am going to somehow make time to have fun with my sister while she is here.  I'm not sure how, but it will happen.  The timing of her visit isn't great, but since she's in school and we're always up to something too, it was really the only weekend that worked.  Plus, it's the first time she's been to Atlanta since she's been of drinking age, so a trip out for some cocktails is a must.
• Not really much else to report.  Life has been busy and is about to be busier!!  We have hired out most of the work in the kitchen, but are still doing a good bit ourselves - demo (except tile floors), painting (walls, trim, doors), installing new shelving in the pantry and laundry closet, tile backsplash, and I will be sewing Roman shades for the windows.  I will certainly be documenting the process and will share the ups, downs and pictures for posterity's sake.
