Returning to normal

Dennis went for his final post-op visit today and was released for work.  He came home, grabbed his lunch and then headed out for his first day on the job in 2 months!

It has been nice having him around and getting some things done that we normally don't have time for.  He finished the gun that he was making for Stephen.  It turned out beautifully!

We were able to do some traveling...seeing new sites and visiting friends and family.

We also FINALLY got lighting in our living room!  We took down the ceiling fans (which we never use, since they give Dennis headaches) and put up light fixtures.  It is wonderful to have adequate lighting now!

We had hoped to get our dining room table refinished.  Unfortunately when Dennis got it sanded down he discovered that the veneer was too thin to refinish.  After much deliberation we decided to top it with formica, which we have on order.  Hopefully Dennis will be able to get it applied and in working order before our upcoming meeting.  I really think I'll like it.  The formica is a granite design with a hint of rose color in it.

The closing on the girls' house has been postponed a few weeks.  Right now it is set for the Friday our meeting starts!  We are hoping they will rush things through so we can get them moved before then.  We may have to plan our Saturday morning activities to include moving them from the apartment to the house!

All in all, it has been a great time of refreshing and productivity!  Makes us look forward to retirement even more!
