So the date has been set.
Ready or not, we will be moving into Cabril in just a few days – huzzah! The bathroom has (almost) been tiled, the walls have (almost) been painted, the kitchen parts have (almost) been delivered and (almost) all of the windows are scheduled to be installed on Monday. The heat is on and the pace is (almost) furious.
But Mother Nature has other ideas.
Progress on our bedroom ceiling screeched to a halt last week when we discovered a tiny nest hidden in the roof beams. Momma Pássaro is busy responding to the constant hungry twittering of her babies – her feathers just won’t be ruffled by any amount of grinding, hammering and cursing.
So now we wait …

I almost decided to reply …
oops… on the bright side? they grow quickly… maybe 6-10 weeks? (i watched baby robins in my front window grow to nearly full sized in about 3 weeks… soon!)
I’ve decided to call it a “feature” …
Hmmm, growth hormones and feathery wigs?
I’m sure I saw a feathery wig in one of these boxes …
