So my craft room is a mess. It has become our “catch-all” for all the stuff that has not yet found a home in my house. I still have things that need to be put in storage, that hubby is dilly dallying on and I have a lot of stuff I’m thinking we probably won’tContinue reading “Craft Disaster”

From Indoors to Out
Since the interior of the house is pretty much done (liveable) for now, we’ve been working on clearing out the yards, getting them prepped for spring planting and just hoping for a front that doesn’t scream FORECLOSURE! So we’ve been raking up the endless debris, pebbles, enough stepping stones to get us across the PacificContinue reading “From Indoors to Out”
Oh my aching….everything!!!
So this is the first time in what feels like forever that I am taking a break long enough to write. We have made leaps and bounds with this house. For the most part, the interior is done. There are still a few stray items lying around, and the office is still a big mess,Continue reading “Oh my aching….everything!!!”
Update
We’ve been in our house for a week today. We have been EXTREMELY busy getting things unpacked. I can’t believe how much stuff we have! It’s finally starting to feel like home. We are starting to slowly get stuff put out and up on the walls. Hopefully, they start slowing down soon, but I doubtContinue reading “Update”
The Process
Day 1: We got our key Saturday, March 16 and decided to hold off on any work until the next day. Instead, we ran around, doing some shopping, buying much needed supplies for the house. The work ahead was extremely overwhelming. We decided that Sunday would be the day we began to do prep workContinue reading “The Process”
The Journey
So we never got our key. It has been a rollercoaster of emotion. Excitement, dismay, disappointment, caution. Why can’t it all be over? I wasn’t going to post on here anymore until we were for sure going to have our key, but I thought, why not? Then someday, if/when we ever do have a house,Continue reading “The Journey”
The Nerve(s)!
So we are approximately four days from getting our key. Maybe sooner. We happened by there this afternoon after church and the back door was unlocked, so of course! we let ourselves in to show my parents. Wow. Is this the same house I’ve been doting over for five months? Where did those cracks comeContinue reading “The Nerve(s)!”
The Countdown Begins…..
So almost a month ago, I get one of those calls that no one ever wants to get. I won’t get into details here but my gramma is now gone, a few days before Christmas. So needless to say this entire month has sucked. To put it mildly. The day of my gramma’s viewing andContinue reading “The Countdown Begins…..”
The first time …
The first time I laid eyes on her, I knew she had to be mine……Well, that’s not entirely true. We walked into the front door that first day and the smell hit me immediately. My aunt’s house had burned down about a month before and so I knew the smell all too well. Upon walkingContinue reading “The first time …”
