I know it will get cooler for you eventually. Did I tell you have a place in Florida now? We've taken over my FIL's condo in Sanibel. The repainting starts in a few weeks, but kitchen/bath updates will wait for another year or two. Hopefully, we'll get to spend more than 2 weeks there this winter.JoAnnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13691864361197071517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7080965436653289398.post-13199320132928978132013-09-16T19:18:55.314-04:002013-09-16T19:18:55.314-04:00Audrey - My kindle tells me I'm 42% done, but ...Audrey - My kindle tells me I'm 42% done, but I keep turning to my hardcover copy just to make sure ;-) It's been very cold here, especially at night, so I am in full fall mode now!JoAnnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13691864361197071517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7080965436653289398.post-52633865730046432902013-09-16T11:13:47.008-04:002013-09-16T11:13:47.008-04:00I haven't pulled any fall decorations out yet ...I haven't pulled any fall decorations out yet as it's been so freakin' hot!
