    At 11;13 pm, Gary wakes from a fitful sleep, turns on his reading lamp, and picks up his bedside pencil… and his list.

    Trying not to wake Nancy, he quickly adds. “One (1) 423 sq. ft. 2-car garage, including workshop area, green with brown trim.”

    Ah… he knew he’d forgotten something.Now sleep will not elude him.
