There were many ruffled feathers as we had to block off the kitchen from the kitties while our ceiling was being fixed.  Aell, not so much fixed as we put a tongue and groove wood ceiling in.  Well, not so much “we”, as our carpenter…  The final “after” will be available after we put our light fixture back up! (and maybe some day I will get to see it with sunshine coming through the windows…)

Along the starlit way, leads the road to my workout.  I never want to get up to go, but I am always happy when I am done and have that feeling of accomplishing at least one thing for the day.
