It’s been a nutty last few weeks. The work in the salt mines has been espe­cially busy, and well — overly salty. Some would say it was too salty for consumption.

Wife, Baby and I are set­tled into the new place — yes, the var­i­ous sundry prob­lems includ­ing flood­ing, floor­ing, bath­rooms and other cruft was resolved post-haste and sat­is­fac­to­rily, albeit expensively.
