A few items

My "cousint" Meg had this in her AIM profile and of course I had to swipe it...love you, Meg!!

"A family is more than people related to each other. It's people joined by shared memories and hopes...It's people drawn together by mutual caring and concern...It's people who stand by each other with understanding and support..."

Aw.

A coworker suggested this type of grout for our tile project (yes, we have decided on 8 inches of tile above the counter and then the continuance of the yellow plaster above that to the cabinets). I'm not so sure about how it would affect the resale value of the house, but something tells me it wouldn't help it. I have read that glow in the dark grout is good for things like exterior walkways to help guide the path, and that sounds like a great idea, but putting it in your bathroom is a little silly...unless your bathroom is on a space shuttle or you are the Jetsons. Gosh, I haven't seen that show in forever.

Tomorrow, we are going to do some kitchen work. It is really coming together. Kevin hung the French door the other day and it looks great. Decor is up, we just need to finish that backsplash. We are also going to see the Phils with our friends Greg and Wesley and their daughter Claire for her first ever baseball game. A momentous occasion to be sure.

Final edits on my paper are due in to my professor on Monday by 5 p.m. so I will be making my group's changes this weekend. And I need to write an abstract. I'm not going to post it online when it's done but if you're interested let me know and I'll mail you a copy. It's a good organic sleep aid.

And lastly, in the spirit of Fridays:

Your Stress Level is: 48%

You are somewhat prone to stress, especially when life gets hard. When things are good, you resist stressing over little problems. But when things are difficult, you tend to freak out and find it hard to calm down.

How Stressed Are You?
