I brewed for the first time since before Christmas yesterday. I made an ESB (Extra Special Bitter). Mmmm, one of my favorites. So many people asked me if I had any beer ready this last weekend, I think I kind of felt guilty for slacking off on the brewing. There was a time when I brewed every two weeks, like clockwork. I'm planning on brewing again on Sunday, but my sis's bridal shower/bachlorette party is Saturday and I'm sure we have an open house to go to on Sunday, so we'll see.

I start my new job next Monday. This means we can go back to the bank and start the ball rolling again on building our house again. We were all set to build last fall and just had to close on the mortgage when I started getting the feeling that my old company wouldn't be around much longer. So we called off the loan and three weeks later I was out of a job. But now we'll be able to do it!
