Discoveries
Zaka has discovered that, with our kitchen renovations, he can run in a straight line from the dining room table all the way to the far kitchen wall without dodging any obstacles.

Plans
Today the countertops went on my cupboards. Tomorrow the doors and drawers. (I hope) It is funny how I make all these plans, go and pick out colours, plan out what I think is the time line it will all occur on and then things just happen on some other schedule, someone else’s plans. but [...]
