Where did the time go?

Only a little of the work I intended to do has been done at the new house. At least by me. The interior of the main level has been completely repainted, so any interior flaws I intended to fix have been repaired or covered. Either is just fine by me right now. Our old home has been a steady drain of finances and physical resources as we emptied it, repainted it, repaired some areas, carpeted the basement, reset the flagstone walkway, and cleaned out the garage. A couple of things still could be done, but the realtors come in Monday to create the virtual tour and by Friday it will officially be on the market.

Tomorrow, my friend's brother is going out to the house with me to do some drywall patching, so there may be a little painting to be done, but for all intents work will be complete and the vast parade of humanity looking for a slice of heaven in western Howard county can begin visiting our humble, empty, dwelling. Whew. And about time, as far as I'm concerned. Now we can begin feathering the nest we are living in rather than the one we've been preparing for the next owners.
