Back at the office

My home's backyard
My wife and I are now back from our 1 week vacation.  We stayed at home, and were able to:

  • Paint!
    • The living room
    • My office
    • The kitchen
  • Buy!
    • A corner TV stand
    • A SolaTube (which has made our living room 300% more pleasant)
    • A new desk for my office
    • Gallons of paint (see “Paint!” above :-) )
  • Plumb
    • Our secondary sewer line collapsed. Ouch.

So, as you can see, it was quite the vacation.  It’s good to be back doing web design!
