I've been quiet about the tiles, as the grout isn't in and the spacers are still quite visible. I think it's changing the character of the room a fair bit, and I'm anxious, now, to see it actually finished.
We sold quite a few jelly jars at the garage sale at Amber's. they went quickly, but I'm not surprised, when I see the price of them in the stores. They're well worth hanging onto for years, if you can. We were looking this week, as I wanted some labels. We bought some spice jars, in a rack, as we've been forced to move the spices, that were formerly over the stove. We couldn't find any labels, and were told that they only stock preserving stuff once a year, at canning time, but have had so many requests, that they are looking at the policy.
I ended up taking the Dr. Phil book back to the library after only reading about 1/3 of it. What I read, and the results of some of the self assessments, told me that I'm not in as bad shape as I think I am, and that this is not a good time for me to be even thinking about some of the things in the book.
I just finished another Gamache book, and again, have been blown away by the author's characters, and insights in to behaviour. The book was " A Trick of the Light", and I believe it was the very first book I ever read of the series. It was a few years back, and familiar, yet most of the detail was still new to me, as I had forgotten.
The city and the plumber are all coming Monday afternoon, and I've been warned to have money ready.
