I am a child of the sixties and Disney, a wife of forty plus years, mother of one, a son, on a journey of his own. I retired from Teaching in 2002, all but one year in a first grade classroom, learning as much from them as they from me. I love music, my family, reading books, spending time with friends, my home, playing piano, crocheting, swimming, and watching HGTV. I do not like pickles, motorcycles, hot weather, travel, and whining. Writing is my new adventure. We'll see how it goes.

Kitchen One Year Old
Our kitchen is one year old. We are so pleased with Renewal's efforts. Putting the pieces together, choosing so many different parts, you're never completely sure it will all go together.
You wonder if it will wear well. The flooring is a new experience. Cherry cabinets are supposed to darken quickly. Quartz is a substance we've never dealt with before. Induction cooking is definitely a different experience from electric. For several months we weren't sure where things were. Comfort and familiarity come quickly, though. Now I turn to the left to put dishes in the dish washer, pull plates from the plate rack, adjust to the microwave drawer coming out into the aisleway, and turn to the left to get something from the fridge.
As we sip coffee and watch the news in front of the fire looking out at our garden we sigh with contentment. A long, arduous project returned a cozy result. Way to go, Renewal.
