..whatever.

For those who read this for the house news: there is light. We snooped again yesterday. Sunday seems to be the quasi-ultimate day of rest. Sometimes they work. Sometimes there is peace. Yesterday there was peace, and we arrived at the abandoned work-site, clambered over the thawing muck, avoided little bit of wood, nails, and construction refuse everywhere around the perimeter. We toured our top floor for the first time. We took a small smattering of photos, though not nearly enough to please me. Time lingered and guests frettered.

For those who read this for the house news: there are stacks of shingles on the raw plywood roof, there is a three-step concrete porch, there are windows waiting for installation, there are bathroom bits starting to form where required by interest, there has sprouted a boxy little chimney high atop the interest spaces, there are frames and folds, there are doorways corners and nooks, there is a wooden rectangle to hold medicine cabinets, there are stairs and steps on multiple design. We have the shell of a house. We are excited.
