It's done. As planned, we moved back into our house yesterday. Considering our past history, we were extraordinarily prepared for the move (though we were up late the night before finishing up). The movers showed up at our rental house at about 8:30 and were done loading the truck before 11. Everything was unloaded at our house by 3:30.

I can hear the question now. Is the house done? Well...

While I was poking through our server logs the other day I managed to discover that bradandkathy.com is currently the number one Google search result for the query "remodel pictures". Interesting. Of course, what I'm really proud of is our number one position for the query "orange poop".

At long last, I've lost my extra appendage. The grotesque growth on my thumb (Kathy called it my pyroclastic flowanoma) is gone, gone, GONE! It took some doing (a trip to urgent care and numerous phone calls), but I finally managed to get an earlier appointment at the UW dermatology clinic. Of course, upon seeing my thumb, the first question I was asked by both the nurse and the med student was "why did you wait so long?" Argh!
