Damn! How did i forget to introduce my lovely assistants?

my apologies, ladies. your contributions have not been overlooked.

somewhere between valentine's day and today i have been honored with the company of two fine, fine ladies. hopefully, i will be able to coax them into contributing to this blog and add their own perspectives on not only the renovations, but the privilege of living with me.

please allow me to introduce you to the lovely Double E.

Her strengths don't lie so much in the ability to renovate as they do in her ability to knit ... seriously, she is a freaky knitter! you need a pair of comfy socks? BAM! you got 'em. Need a pair of mittens? BAM! consider your hands toasty warm. need a sock hat? BAM! heat will never escape your head again. see where i am going with this? she can knit, people! and most of all she has the stamina to knit all day everyday. it's true! never gets tired. if you ask me, that is almost a superpower ... she could even knit her own cape. BAM!



but wait, not only am i graced by the presence of Double E ... I am joined in this soujourn by her sidekick Nona.

Sadly, Nona lacks strengths. Or anything resembling strengths. Or anything that could possibly, maybe, sorta, somewhat, kinda be considered a strength. The picture says it all. She likes to sleep ... and hiss at people ... and claw at newly reupholstered furniture ... and leave hair everywhere ... and lick the shower curtain ... and lick plastic bags ... and lick things on the floor ... i think she enjoys licking, in general. None of which really help when remodeling a house.
