One Chaos Down, One To Go, with A Kitchen Interruption

Well...got through last night (the various Girl Scouts loved Juno, as predicted) and got home and went back to bed. This morning, though: Spouse and I went and made a final decision on the appliances for the kitchen, then went off and ordered the cabinets. Everything, of course, is more expensive than we originally thought: adjustments, getting some sliding shelves, and of course the moldings on the top of the cabinets, and suddenly we've gone from mumble-thousand to mumble-thousand plus 2. And there's the appliances--we opted for better stuff than we'd originally budgeted for, but...hell, we're planning on living here for a long time. So: gulp. Next: figuring out the flooring thing.

And tonight: the eight girls on the floor, watching many many movies. The cake is in the oven, the pizza will be ordered, there is soda and popcorn and chips. Tomorrow at noon Avocado will be officially as 12 as it gets, and will be back to usual. I plan to sleep as much as I can tonight; maybe some cough syrup before bed?
