LOL<br /><br />Speaking of dictionaries (I can't open the link because I've reached my limit of 3 articles, apparently), I still have the large dictionary that my parents bought for me when I started fifth grade. It's a beat up old "Webster's New World Dictionary" printed in 1958, and I marked it inside as "August 1958." Just flipping through it brings back lots of memories...that thing was used just about every school day for the next several years. Not sure how it survived to still be here.

...OK. Who knows what it will look like in 10 years?<br /><br />Yes, I became a night owl when I read with a flaslight under the covers at age 11. When I got my own room at the end of 14, end of age 1t, it was the life of Reilly. Up reading with snacks and the cat on my bed. I've never outgrown that habit, but sadly, won't have a hat.Kathy D.https://www.blogger.com/profile/18418720666849497808noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1999659125625323494.post-74712786200830704242021-10-22T11:41:50.164-07:002021-10-22T11:41:50.164-07:00Nothing ever goes as planned with construction, th...Nothing ever goes as planned with construction, that's for sure! We have bathrooms that need remodeled as well, but keep putting if off because of the upheaval. I know you will be thrilled when it is done.<br /><br />On our recent trip we noticed those large flocks of Starlings in Nebraska. We figured they must be migrating, but according to the article about Starling murmuration October is a little early for this. I guess they just like to travel that way when they can. 🙂<br /><br />I hope you get your schedule back and have a relaxing weekend!Gretchenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09351923715238237269noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1999659125625323494.post-51638723494505762612021-10-22T09:06:56.857-07:002021-10-22T09:06:56.857-07:00It's so good to hear that your own projects ar...It's so good to hear that your own projects are finally making progress. I know you've been waiting for a long time. I'm just over here in Phoenix biting my tongue because I'm tired of these folks telling me that they'll be here between 8 and 8:30 and having them show up at 9 or 11 or not at all.

What Denis and I are having done to the guest bath just continues some of those changes.

I do know that Denis' job made it 'normal' for you two. Our daughter and son-in-law are on a similar schedule because of her night shift work at the hospital. And we rise early (like at 5) and go to bed early (like at 9). Whatever works.<br /><br />Good luck with your bathroom reno projects. Glad that they are progressing and I know you'll be happy to have them done, but also hope you are delighted with the results. Our new roof is on, new paint on the trim and fascia outside, new gutters to come next week. We talked with a company yesterday and are beginning to get quotes on our indoor projects - like the bathrooms, etc. Yay!Kayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13495669354860191042noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1999659125625323494.post-81389551359318296752021-10-22T04:34:10.672-07:002021-10-22T04:34:10.672-07:00Oh, I hope you'll love the new bathroom, Cathy...Oh, I hope you'll love the new bathroom, Cathy!

It's a total demolition/rebuilding job.<br /><br />Good luck to all.<br /><br />Your and Denis' schedule is about what mine is, although sometimes it's even later. I just love to read, watch TV and search the Internet in the wee hours. I must be a nocturnal creature.<br /><br />Best wishes on the renovations and thanks for the links which I will peruse later today.Kathy D.https://www.blogger.com/profile/18418720666849497808noreply@blogger.com
