People love us

Notes about having a house constantly under construction:
1) There will always be a hammer, screwdriver, and/or tape measure on your kitchen table.
2) There will always be furniture that doesn’t belong in a particular room (rocking chair in the kitchen, dining table in the living room, couch pillows in the den)
3) There will always be a bag of construction waste on the front porch.

I’m sure our neighbors love us right now.

Outside our front window is a huge old tree that I’m sure will be chopped down as soon as someone from PSE&G realizes that it’s growing into their lines. But it’s a happy resting place for squirrels, and thus a nice bit of entertainment for the puppy. See him?
