Am I a Grownup?

Among our summer projects, Neal and I have been trying to finish up some of the rooms in our little ranch.  You know how it goes.  Mostly it’s done; walls are painted, furniture is adequate.  After a frustrating time of making due with old, old (not antique old, more like stuff-we-had-in-college old) now-icky couches, we sprang for new, lovely ones.  Along with a slab of stone for the hearth.  Which led to a new rug.  There are still a few more things to be done in the room (hello, window treatments!), but it is starting to feel like a grown up room to me.  About time!
