Remarkable

Tonight after work I had to meet an appraiser at the house. He looked all over and took a bunch of notes and pictures. When he was leaving, he told me that it was "remarkable." Now I keep thinking of that Seinfeld episode, "The Hamptons," the one about the ugly baby. "Remarkable." Hee!

Busy day today. Every day seems to be busy lately. But it has been a nice week so far. I had lunch with people a couple of days -- always a treat for me -- and I also have weekend plans to look forward to. Saturday and Sunday. So that is a pleasant state of affairs.

And next week is Thanksgiving, which is also something to look forward to. Not only because I'll have a short week at work! Marty's mom and stepfather are coming up for the holiday, and it will be very good to see them. And I like to cook Thanksgiving dinner, too. Plus, we are all going to New York next Saturday to see The Music Man on Broadway. I can't wait! Yet another one of those musicals I know all the words to...

Of course, all these plans mean that something needs to happen to the downstairs. We aren't quite so buried under powertools as we were a week ago, and the shopvac has moved from the living room down to the basement, but it's still kind of a wreck down there. I guess I should stop writing here and go see what I can do about it.
