good news on the grandfather front. the parentals report that his surgery monday went very well and that not only is he talking a lot and in good spirits, but also his color is better and he's coughing more fluid out of his lungs(which low energy from not eating enough prevented before). this is a relief. i would really prefer to have grandpa around for longer.
he has requested more of my xmas candy, so it looks like i will be making it twice this year.
....and he claims he doesn't have a sweet tooth.
the house is also in good shape although progress has slowed recently due to having no more deadlines and being completely exhausted. however, there are

basement with sub-flooring.

other side of basement with sub-flooring. eventually the furnace and water heater and the washer and dryer will be closeted off from the rest of the room.

framed fireplace

fireplace with tile and grout in place.

the rest of our living room - sorry about the wire in the lower left-hand corner.
all in all, i feel pretty good about the way all of this looks. i will still feel better about it when the basement is also useable for some of this.
