Our kitchen is done! Apparently the guys doing the renovation left the house five minutes before I arrived home today. We have our new floor and and wall tiles and paint, the counters are all usable, the cabinets are in place and even have lamps on the bottom, and tonight we cleared off the dining table and cooked ourselves cutlets in pomi with onions and rice, the sort of meal we haven't had since this began. Except they forgot to put the pot hooks back on our upper shelf, so she had to call them about that, but still. We have a fully functional kitchen again.
Writing my Skate America recap over the weekend, I'm starting to wonder how I'm going to manage this later in the season. It took practically all my free hours. How am I going to manage things when Russian and Japanese Nationals are happening at once, to say nothing of January? Of course part of it was I had less free hours, thanks both to going out to eat and attending the big Jane Austen conference. But this weekend I also have a Halloween party to go to Saturday night. Still, perhaps this will be easy once the series moves east, and thus events start ending earlier on Saturday. Unless, like Skate America, they end on Sunday instead.
But I should be getting more sleep. Yesterday morning they were screening everyone coming into the Pentagon, and the guy who wanded me told me I looked tired. I hadn't even felt tired before then, but when he brought it up I did. Maybe I am working too hard.
