House Redesign: Room Dividers
One of the side effects of the house repairs we are doing is a redesign of our living space inside. Our living spaces are being rearranged, reassigned, as we make the same building an entirely new residence. The house addition, once a playroom, then the dog's den, is now becoming "The Suite", as in the … Continue reading House Redesign: Room Dividers
Fitness update: relaxed
I mentioned on January 1, New Year's Day, that I would give a more fitness updates and goals for 2018. Yet now that I am here, I think I am actually more devoid of goals than I was last year.
