The floors are in, the nice rugs laid down, the furnioture cleaned and replaced in a better distirbution, the patio swept and the garage scrubbed down and restored to order, the carpets clean, the daughter home for Xmas, the bills so far all paid, and the job is fun. In an hour or three I will be off for a long weekend for Xmas with my Best Beloved Girls, mother and daughter, and it doesn't get better than that! And Barky wrote a very nice song and did a fine job composing it in Garage Band, and so she now has her first "CD", with pictures and all, even though only one song on it. Life is good.
