Thursday was the low point of little home improvement project.

• It had turned out to be not little at all.
• The workers had been camping in our dining room for two weeks.
• And we suddenly had an attack of "we're going to hate it".

What had we done?!

But by Friday afternoon the tarps had come down and we were overjoyed with the results. It looks great! Bonus: the new furnace is quieter, warmer, cheaper to run, and MUCH kinder to Dean's tender allergies. He's breathing much better than before.

It was all worth it after all!

In other news, Felix was talking about Pokemon so much that Dean had to rent one of the movies just to understand the child. And Lucie was gracious enough to craft an album for all his Pokemon cards. Whatever gene causes people to collect things, the kid's got it.
