Inauguration Day

What a great day!!  Erin invited us to her school assembly in the church where they had a big screen set up for everyone to watch.  There was a strings mini-concert, speeches by students, and then we watched Biden and Obama get sworn in (Dave made too loud of a "hooray" when Biden officially replaced Chaney).  After that, we went to Lowes and Home Depot again and picked out our cabinets for the kitchen and bought some faucets and a vanity top for the master bath (granite! and only $199 for a 49" top!).  I am definitely sick of shopping, but all of this is necessary to find out what's what down here.  We have to compare all of the special deals that everyone is offering during this economic slump.  Home Depot gives us 12 months no interest and no payments!!  That gives them the edge.  Tomorrow Dave has an appointment with the building permit people in St. Lucie County at 8AM, and then we go to Home Depot to slap down our card and get the kitchen stuff settled.  Then we can get down to some real work, like ripping out the icky bathroom and killing mold.  I may kill a fire ant or two (sorry, Laura).
