Hard Work Pays Off

My life as of lately:

Jump out of bed with paint on my face and in my hair from the day before

Put on the same outfit I've worn the past week

Notice its even more dirty than the last time I looked at it

Bed not made

Laundry still in hamper from the week before

Bathroom could use a good scrubbing

Late to bed and early to rise

Veggie tray for dinner next to a space heater

 Talks of paint, sheet rock, fireplaces, new carpet, yard work, remodeling, furnaces, hot water heaters, home decor, and moving are exchanged

Three trips to Lowe's in 12 hours

Blessed with family who loves to help

A hard working, very talented husband

The result:

Before:

During

We are going with an all white house, refere to previous post for details.



Now

Take a deep breath because we are done forever....right?

Wrong.

New carpets this week

Moving all week

Bathroom remodeling
Build a new widow sill

Replacing those curtain things with glass walls and a door for the fireplace

Taking the aquarium out and growing small indoor plants there instead

Build a fire place mantel

Get cracking on the decor
Curtains instead of blinds

And lets not even start with the garage- that's a project itself!

And then there is yard work

Lots of yard work

We got our apple, peach, and apricot trees in before the snow hit

The giant some sort of willow tree got trimmed

The roof and gutters cleaned

And I even got a bucket full of pine cones from our pine tree

When they tell you, "Its a never ending process!"

or, "The projects never end!"

or even, "That's a home for you!"

Believe them, because they are 110% right.

But you will love the never ending list of projects.

Because you are making any house your home.

We love our little house!
