Dreaming of Flying



Our house is totally taken apart. Tomorrow all the furniture in the study goes upstairs to the loft‚which is already filled with papers, books, lamps, and assorted miscellany. Dresser drawers sit perilously upon other drawers —and the space in the middle is for two lazy boy chairs, two computer tables, two book cases, a file cabinet, a desk and chair , and two small cabinets—a TV stand and a TV.

In another day the men come to lay down carpet in two rooms—then the furniture goes back and the painters come to paint upstairs. The downstairs has already been painted.

I don't understand people who love redecorating—only wear, tear, and the results of the winter ice dam made me take this step.

Ah—the clouds! I want to be far away from this mess.

I suffered last year around this same time: painted rooms, new floors, new deck and on and on. I know exactly how you're feeling, and I send my sympathy.

I'm so glad you get to put your house back to rights. Don't forget the bottle of wine so when you're finished, you can put your feet up and celebrate.
