This is about the way things are looking at my house right now, except I don't look as cute as the girl in the picture. Wearing make up and decent looking clothes is a thing of the past. It's been nothin but grubbies and dry-wall-dust encrusted-hair and skin. Makes a girl feel really pretty, I tell ya. Actually, it means progress is being made and indeed it is. The kitchen no longer looks quite like a war zone. The cruddy flooring and counter tops are up and out and the ugly (and impractical) wall with the hideous built-ins is down. There's new flooring to be installed, the counter tops (hooray for Martha Stewart's gorgeous"Sea Salt" Solid Surface! Love you Martha) have been ordered and we've lined up a posse of capable (and oh-so-kind) friends to help us with the big move on Saturday. No rest for the weary. Back to packing for me... And how are you?
Thank the Lord-y for a great friends who will help us out in times of need! (And usually a little more eager when beer/pizza/babysitting are offered too!)
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your move- it is very exciting!
Xx
congrats on your new place!
ReplyDeletei know the feeling of the first photo~we've moved around a few times ;)
Oh I can so relate. You a super speedy though compared to us! Way to go!! We are still painting. I have permanent oil based white paint in my hair that won't come out, & my (seriously un-flattering) painting clothes have taken up permanent residence in my wardrobe line up. I wonder what our future neighbors are thinking about us...HA! Happy moving! & Happy decorating! New spaces are so fun!
