Health food makes me sick.

IMG_6476.jpg It's amazing, I know, but it seems I might actually move in this week. The major holdup was the floors -- remember the leak and the ruined hardwood? Well, we had to wait for more 6" oak to arrive and then we had to wait until the crew could get to me. So...they actually worked over the weekend to get it all done. The truck & crew (one man and his girlfriend) came up Sunday with the stuff from the Florida condo. After looking at the floors, walking around and talking about it a bit, we decided to put the furniture in the garage and give the floors a few more days.

I'll work today and go down tomorrow to manage all the other deliveries (beds, W/D, cable, phone, more furniture, etc.). Now that you can do so much shopping on line, stuff is being delivered from everyone. A table from here, chairs from there, lamps and accessories from other places. It's somewhat of a mess to manage on the backend.

Hopefully, all the plantings for the garden area will come in this week. The shed & garden are perfect -- small enough to be manageable. 315651-1542795-thumbnail.jpg

I'm Getting in the Married in the Morning!

So said Eliza Doolittle! And, last week, so said my nephew Aaron and his bride to be, Shawn. It was a small family wedding in Sandestin. We could not have asked for better weather, better kids, better food, a more beautiful bride and groom -- just perfect. My brother Harold performed the ceremony which made it very special for all the Bakers for sure. Avery and Noah were in the wedding, which certainly made it special for me.

(Thank you, Johnny)315651-1524273-thumbnail.jpg But she didn't stop with Uncle Johnny -- Thomas was her best partner.315651-1524322-thumbnail.jpg The groom and his Uncle Harold. 315651-1524328-thumbnail.jpg The groom dances with his Mom.
