Today is the Day!

It was supposed to happen Saturday afternoon. Then is was supposed to happen This morning. And now.... after lunch... it's happening!  My counters are going in! 

Here's a single photo to give you an idea - I have to leave tomorrow for a writer's conference in Houston so there won't be any more work done on the cabinets until I get back, but I'm guessing I will have a functioning kitchen in time for Thanksgiving.  The island may not be ready by then - but the sink, the cook top, the counters, and with the Grace of God the oven will be ready to go! 

I am so happy I could do a jig. I have wanted to redo my kitchen for at least 20 years. Always thought the design was backwards and senseless. Six years ago an architect redesigned it for me for my daughter's wedding (we had a party for 100 people at my house and I was hoping for more room to roam lol). Well, we did rearrange the left side of the kitchen to make more room but a big wedding and a completely new kitchen weren't in the cards. 

It's taken five more years to finally get this done but I am so excited I could dance all the way to the conference tomorrow! 

As for everything else in the book world. It looks like the Barons of Texas won't be out until January - again date still to be confirmed, but the good news is that for those of you who like saving money, the ebooks will be available soon on my website at a 10% discount off retail! How fun is that!  Will also keep y'all posted when that happens! 

Okay - lots going on today so I'm going to cut this short. It's a nice sunny 70 degree day in my neck of the woods which makes for good writing weather! I have catching up to do! 

See you all next week - same bat time, same bat channel ! LOL  (who's old enough to remember that one??!! lol)
