Let there be ... lights!

I'm like a moth tonight, glazing at the newly installed lights in our kitchen, laundry room, garage entryway and exterior.

Even without bulbs in the over-the-sink chandelier,1 it's such a treat to be able to see after dark in the kitchen especially with night arriving earlier and earlier each day.

Inadequate household lighting was a regular frustration before the remodel project, an annoyance I wanted to eradicate. Little did I know that the solution involved spending several months without any lights at all in key rooms like the kitchen.

Since we haven't a kitchen table yet, the kids do their homework at the island counter every night. But we don't have counter-height stools yet either, so they sit up on their knees in regular height chairs!

Jeff ordered the missing furniture this evening and all will be delivered next Wednesday. Slowly, slowly, slowly.

1 "chandolere" where we bought it ... I controlled my editor's impulse to correct their spelling.
