Hmm...six months ago today I was sitting at home (being a Saturday, and on sabbatical still) planning out my last week of sabbatical.
The plan, then, was to spend several days taking photos throughout Manhattan.
Unfortunately, that didn't pan out.

Argh...
(yes, that seems to be a popular way to start my updates).
There was a water leak at the new house today...from the sewer line feed to/from the street.
The downstairs neighbor discovered it and it turned out to be quite trivial for the plumber to fix (I had visions of replacing 80+ year old drain pipe...and we're not even moved in yet).

So I spent the morning hanging around the new house and realized that the
chances of the work being completed on the first floor before we're
supposed to move are slim to none. Instead we're going to move on the
18th, giving the painters & carpenters a couple more days to complete the
rooms on the first floor (where we'll cram everything until the rest of
the house is complete).
