It didn't actually take three months to do this....

But we did finish the garage.

If you can really call it finished ever. There are plenty of somedays out there -- just as there are around the house. Someday we would like to do something snazzy with the garage floor. Someday we'd like to devise a better storage system for the seven (!) bikes out there. But for now we are done with an honestly massive overhaul of our car-storage area.... The proof that we've accomplished something amazing: We can now regularly store at least one car in our two-car garage.

Sooo.. If it didn't actually take three months to finish up - how long did it take? One more day. We were literally finished the night after my previous post and supremely happy with our results. We actually spent a good chunk of the next evening sitting in the garage in lawn chairs like complete lunatics just so we could enjoy the fruits of our labor.

Updating the blog is where we ran into problems.

Immediately following our garage-redo triumph I became sick again. Yes, again. I recall a couple of weeks of pain (and pain killers) and frantic trips to doctors offices and ultrasound technicians and labs - but the exact order and nature of all of that is lost to me now. I eventually ended up having a very hastily scheduled surgery to remove a chronically inflamed gall bladder and a wayward lymph node. The last few months have been recovery... not from the surgery as much as from the drama (not trauma) of the whole thing.

And now.. we're back.

Tiny, teeny, pathetic projects are on the horizon! A post with our updated to-do list is to follow.

In the meantime, hello DWSHKON readers! Nice to be back.
