lauraanne_gilmaneeee! I can haz cabinets! I can has Thing Looks Like Kitchen!
Went out this afternoon to keep friend from keeling over after Indelicate Medical Procedure, and stopped for dinner with folks (and puppy-time). Came home and ... boxes were out of living room! Fridge was out of living room! Rug was back on floor! Cabinets were all installed and fridge and dishwasher put into place!
Mind you, we're still missing a countertop, and the stove and microwave and sink have yet to be put into place, and there's no backsplash and.... But eeee! Is no longer empty echoing space!
The cats have already been All Over It.
Oh, and I haz rough draft of PACK OF LIES, too. For those who come here for the writing stuff [all six of you]. Very rough, and too short, but drafty, yes. Ending kick some serious ass, and winds up my heroine for book 3. All I have to do is whip through the second draft, add about 20,000 words, and polish it up in time for the May 1 delivery date. Nooooo problem! And am well into first chapter of MUSTANG, wherein Our Heroine has already been menaced by Sleazy Minions of Evil Guy.
Meanwhile, in the alleged Real World, things are still a mess. I'm forcing myself to follow the news, but I don't have the heart to report it here. *sighs* Oh well. There is good out there. There are places where people aren't killing each other, where they're working to solve problems, cure diseases, grow sustainable crops, and teach tolerance and moderation and acceptance. And there are kittens and puppies and chocolate. And good wine at reasonable prices. It's not all bad....
