The Beginning

It is supercilious of me to claim that I am at the beginning of anything.  Billy Joel's song lyrics come to mind: "We didn't start the fire / It was always burning / Since the world's been turning."   But for my blogging and home renovation purposes THIS is the beginning.  The first words are being written and the floorboards, walls and roof on my new home are still in tact.  This Beginning is fleeting.
