Flooring is the big push right now, and for days 88 and 89 that's all the contractor worked on. Cabinets are coming Friday, and he doesn't want to put flooring down in the kitchen area until he sees the cabinets in all their glory.

Yes, from this angle it looks pretty good, human. |
On day 88 a van showed up and the driver claimed he was there to install a garage door opener. Now, I had been told that the garage ceiling was too low to accommodate such a luxury, so I was resigned to my manual door. Surprise! The contractor spoke with the garage door people and found that there was actually enough room for a small opener...and apparently there was room in the budget, as well.
The back is open so we can put light bulbs in there...can you imagine? Not only does this garage sorcery open and close the door, it also lights up the garage. I've never had one of these gizmos before, so I'm feeling very much like a princess. 👸
On the land front, a week of super warm weather has melted much of the snow.
The ground is still fairly wet in places, so there are continued mud issues. We're supposed to have rain and possibly snow in the next few days, then temps will cool down to more traditional spring levels for a while. Mom's crocus and daffodils are pushing through all over the place, though, so spring is definitely gaining a foothold. I planted a good amount of daffodils around the mulberry tree, and can't wait to see how many made it through the winter. If most of them did, it should make for quite a pretty display.
