walkitoutA. does not have Friday school, so today is chill.
I had my Dutch lesson, which was delightful.
I did a review of the slides with JB, which was fun, and very satisfying. I had apparently told her I no longer wanted the wallpaper a while ago but failed to update the slides. It was nice going through and reconciling all the decisions so the slide deck represents the design as it currently stands.
O. from M. produced a visualization of the bar face and it looks wicked cool! I’m very excited about it. The layout is a little different from the Memdini inspiration, and of course I changed some of the colors. I wasn’t sure whether using a marbled color for the division color choice (and all the diamonds are marbled versions of those color selections) was going to be weird, but it’s really wonderful. It’s even softer than the Sotto.
The tabletop from Hardwood Lumber arrived, and it had some kind of corner impact that affected on side on the corner — but I ordered two good sides, so it will be fine, we’ll just put that side down. However, I do not want to risk more of this. After contemplating driving out to Ohio to pick up the next ones in person (my solution for my bed, but that’s in Putney, VT), I started looking for someone closer to here or the new house that makes similar countertops / table tops. I will be calling NEWT in Connectthedots tomorrow. I had to look up their location, but they are not far from East Windsor, which I believe is where we went to go look at installed pools done by our pool subcontractor.
R. and I took an evening walk and went over to True West. I had an old-fashioned and he had a triple. Very pleasant! I had set up pizza dough before we left and I made a pizza upon our return. Yummy! We had set A. up with dinner before setting out, and she was wrapping up as my pizza was done.
