Last day

Today's the last day of February and the last day for our kitchen ceiling work. The first coat of paint went on yesterday and it looks great. The final coat goes on this morning. We're keeping our fingers crossed that the heavy rain squalls we're having will not cause any leaking.

A gratuitous shot of our hamlet seen from the vineyards on a relatively sunny day. Not today.

The kitchen won't be any different except for the ceiling. That and the good cleaning everything's getting as it all gets put back together. Next up: the den in May. Once we can turn off the central heating and drain the system, we can take down the radiator in the den. Then the contractor will remove the remaining wallpaper and repair the ceiling. It's the only ceiling we haven't painted since we moved in nearly eleven years ago. Then I will paint the walls when he's done.
