Two Happy Moments

Happy Friday, all!

Well, my new counters are in! In short: they're GORGEOUS.
Whew! What a relief!

I was so nervous about the color I picked. I kept thinking, Brown? Really?
What were you thinking? But it turns out that it's really pretty because it's neutral but also different because of the little flecks of blue in it.
I don't think the pictures do it justice, but I took them anyway. KEEP IN MIND THAT THE BACK SPLASH IS GOING AND COUNTER STOOLS ARE COMING NEXT WEEK.


I expanded the island a bit. And check out the fridge!

I took a close-up picture of the granite. It's hard to tell but it looks like there are little crushed jewels sprinkled in.

My new sink. It's a Blanco Silgranit in the color "Truffle". It's way bigger and deeper than my old sink. Woo-hoo!

More pictures to come as more things change... I'm hoping to have everything completed my Christmas.

A happy moment for sure. :-)

In another happy moment, I was editing a chapter this week to give to a critique partner and made a pleasant discovery. It had been a long time since I looked over what I'd written, so I had one of those "Did I really write that?" LOL! It was that good.

I haven't had that in a long time--if ever.

Let's hope my critique partner is as impressed...

Have you ever been super surprised and impressed with what you've written before?

Any happy moments this week you'd like to share?
