Weekly Round Up

This we I...
... admired our new faucet.  Now we are awaiting the bill.  If we just had to swap it out we wouldn't have called a plumber, but there were enough other problems that we decided to.
It doesn't look at that impressive....

but it is much better than this!

... enjoyed tea with Elizabeth L., artist extraordinaire.  Check out her elegantly medieval and Byzantine work here.
... got my very first piece of mail for J. Pario!  This was kind of surreal.  J. Pario doesn't exist.  I made her up.  So even though it was junk mail, it was strange.
...played Scrabble with Marcia--we came up with three 7-letter words.  (Note: There are only two blanks!)
