Kai and Maria in Denver, Mike Renovating
Kai and James riding a mini bike in Denver
Kai and Maria spent Thanksgiving in Denver with her folks and her sister Yoko. I was supposed to go too, but I came down with a nasty flu before my flight was scheduled to leave, and I didn’t feel well enough to travel (her dad is ill, so it wouldn’t have been good for me to be around him anyway). They had a really good visit. Kai particularly enjoyed riding James’ mini bikes (James is Yoko’s boyfriend) - see the video below.
I was down and out for about 36 hours, and then I felt surprisingly good. I still had another day and half before Maria and Kai came back, so I got a lot done on our 3rd floor renovations. I built a closet in the room that will be our new bedroom (there wasn’t one before) and ran new electrical lines. I still have to finish tearing out the highly flammable fiber board walls (from what I’ve learned, there was a brief period of time, decades ago, when it was actually legal to use wood fiber board for wallboard). Once that’s done the drywallers can come put up the new walls.
