the remaking of a kitchen

today i planned to run over to the bead store and get that one color that i don't have, but really do need. first it started pouring rain and don had just left for downtown, so i stood and watched the gutters pouring over, and said, self, you can do this. so i got out the magic tool and stood in the garage and tried womanfully to dislodge the clog.....it worked sort of as it started draining better and lots of olive leaves came out the downspout. it also worked in that my sandals were squishy with water, and my t-shirt was soaked pit to hem and my cropped pants had dripping hems. ahhhhh. so then i decided to wait for the rain to slow, and as i was dry and ready to make the drive the phone rang and it was tile guy asking if he could come over and just start laying out the project. i said YES. he came, brought in the tile which i really like thank goodness, and made his plan about how to do stuff. he cut some of the tile and will be back tomorrow to begin the messy particulars of the job. things are really happening. :))
did i mention that it's raining, really raining!? fabulous!
