It's just shy of 9pm here in the northern part of Kirkland, WA . . . actually, it's unincorporated King County. Basically that means that there are no city ordinances to prevent the purchase or use of fireworks. Being as far north as we are, it's not even dark yet, but our neighborhood sounds like a war zone. Families are setting off loud fireworks in our cul-de-sac. Doesn't seem likely at this point that I'll be sleeping much tonight. Oh well.
Michelle has been out of town all weekend, visiting family and friends in San Diego. Meanwhile, I've been working on a tile project. It was way more painful and time consuming than I had planned for. Basically, I was able to complete not quite half of what I had intended. But, the total job included three different areas, so it was o.k. that I only got one done. I'll do the others in the next couple of weekends - they're much easier than what I got done this weekend. Given that this was my first tile job, I'm happy with how it turned out. Hopefully the rest of the project will look as good. At least I know it can't possibly be as bad as what was there before.
Looking forward to picking Michelle up from the airport tomorrow morning . . .
