Friday evening, as I was preparing to get into bed, we were startled by a loud crash! Scuttling across to the walk-in closet, we found that the shelves have come down. Again. This time it was much more catastrophic, however.
My longer term plans (say six months from now) included outfitting the closet with fresh hardware to maximize the space, create order and increase stability. This event moved everything up. We took the decision there and then to drive the three hours to Seattle in the (Saturday) morning to get the closet organizing hardware from IKEA. Not the way that I had planned to spend Saturday. Nor was the process of installing and building the closet hardware my preferred way of spending Sunday (not the least because the house is still jammed with boxes waiting to be unpacked).

On the up-side, I asked mpo to drive on the way back from Seattle, which allowed me to do some camera-waving, grabbing mostly sky shots as the sun set amid fluffy clouds.
The weather lately has been really strange. We've had a whole lot of rain very early in the season, then an unusual frequency of foggy mornings, and now a high incidence of sunny days in what would normally be the soggy grey part of the year.
Not that I am complaining, mind you. Give me rain twice a week and I am extremely happy with sunshine for the rest of the days :-)
