Settling along with the dust

I just finished some of the best porkroast-sweetpotato-broccoli I have ever tasted. Perfection courtesy of Ericka. Alfie is out at volleyball (a wednesday night ritual), and all the rest of the gang are upstairs in one stage or another in their journey towards dreamtime. I get the dishes and a quiet moment to upload some pics. Things are definitely settling with the dust from the sanding of the floors. The entire house was covered in different, let's say, fun shades of carpet hiding beautiful wood floors beneath. Alfie and I and a few friends loaded and unloaded a 26 foot (8 meter) truck 4 times two weekends ago!!! We were sore for the entire week after but we did it. Two storage spaces and 3 families (Irene moved in to Alfie and Ericka's place in Shutebury) later we are living in this wonderful house that becomes a little less chaotic every day as we unpack stuff and learn that the silverware are to the right, the cups are in the upper left, the tools need to be put back in the same place every time, and all 3 doors have to be locked at night.
