When I got home today, my neighbor across the street said, "Someone stole the back of your house!" Cute, huh? No more bricks, no more cement slab, no more patio. I never realized how huge our lot was until today. It makes me feel like we're making a really good decision here because I think (hope) it's going to be a good use of the property.

Darryl had the first reading of his new play tonight. It was weird to shut off the remodeling part of my brain and focus on the play instead. Now I understand why people have talked about the importance of maintaining the momentum for the project. I always assumed they meant that you don't want your contractor taking time off or working on other jobs. But maybe it's also true that for us, we need to stay focused too. While I haven't actually done anything myself yet (besides filling boxes with photos and unloading then reloading the china hutch), I feel like my energy is an integral part of the process. If I knew any meditation chants I'd be doing them right now, just to keep the chi flowing. (Um, is that the right expression?)

BTW thanks to the wonderful actors who came to our house tonight. It was so exciting to hear the words come to life. You were all amazing! If anyone out there wants to become a theater mogul, I have the perfect script for you.
