Rain, Rain come again some other day...

As much as we need the rain, we have literally been stuck at our house not being able to do anything. All the work we wanted to do on our house was to be done outside. We were planning to put in the rock base to make our driveway. Every time we plan to put in the driveway, it has rained or something has prevented us from doing it. That's life though! 

We have recently put a coat of varnish on our cabinets and have installed three cabinet doors. At least that is some progress. 

So this weekend we went to see The Great Gatsby. The movie was good, but the book is better. That is by far my favorite book, ever. If you haven't read it, you are doing yourself a big disservice. This is one of the greatest pieces of literary fiction ever written. Fitzgerald is amazing the way he beautifully crafts his words; it is pure art and beauty. 

 As I sit and write down this blog post, it is raining again. But  just maybe we needed a weekend to just relax and enjoy the beauty out in our secluded neck of the woods...
