Still Alive...

Sorry it has been awhile, the school year started and, frankly our current projects (organizing and cleaning the garage, basement and back porch) just weren't that interesting to take photos of or blog about.  Though the car fits in the garage for the first time since the beginning of the fence project in April. Eureka!

This is especially nice since our garage comes right to the alley and we have no driveway, so it had to be on the street.  Unfortunately I am now too lazy to park in the garage because we don't have an automatic door opener, and it's a real hassle to get out, open the door, get back in, back the car into the garage and close the door again.  For me, this all takes a certain amount of finesse because if the door goes up too far, I can't reach it and have to jump or stand on the bumper of the car to get it back down, which is just not something you want to do after teaching 30 4th graders all day.

Kevin is making our combination storms as we speak, and those are worth blogging about, though not by me.  I'll see if I can persuade him to write in the nest couple days.  They look spectacular, from what I've seen.
