June 12: Finished Projects

We have a lot of different house projects going on right now, and I feel like we are in the middle of all of them with seemingly no end in sight, which slightly frustrating because I feel like our house is a disorganized mess. But finally (finally!) I finished one of them: painting the band room/office (remember, avocado green?). It turned out delightfully. But what was even more delightful than the finished paint job, was putting the office back in order. It's no surprise that I enjoy organizing, so it was delightful to put the desks back and organize them. I even hung a picture I had been meaning to hang all year (a beautiful painting by Will Pottorff of the original logo for Agape Comedy Night [the beer can as microphone], which in itself is another bittersweet memory. We used to have comedy nights in this very room, with up to 50 people in attendance featuring 6 comics and live music. Man, those were the days. But even had I not closed the brewery when I did, the pandemic would have shut those down anyway. I continue to be amazed with the timing of these events). 

Anyways, the finally finished painting and organizing of the office/band room/former comedy night room got me inspired to finish another project-- the kitchen. Of course that really won't be finished for awhile, but I can at least get pieces of it finished, so next up, finish painting the trim to have my husband reinstall it, which requires me to touch up the paint on the kitchen walls, which I also accomplished yesterday, and it looks gorgeous! We are so close to have a beautifully renovated house, and it is delightful.

With delight,
