ok, so we are in the stephan-coming-home countdown.......less than a week........the logistics of meeting scw and jon at the airport will be interesting......we have accessed the airport website to try to pick out a meeting place for us and jon, as he will arrive hours before scw........we are also tidying up the upstairs spare bedroom so that scw can have personal space again........this means that i will have to make a curtain for the window.....it has had fabric just draped over the rod for at least a year (when acw went to college and the bedroom swaps began in earnest.....) the old curtain didn't go with the new william morris-style wallpaper, so i took it down.......the closet of this room is filled with bolts of fabric (this room was intended to be my sewing room....) but they will just have to stay there.........
