Our Front Door and A Window


Here are a couple of projects that we have worked on this week.  I must say that we are putting a dent in the work that we want to happen.  The electrical work was completed on Friday and now we can actually live like a normal family.  Who knew that plug-ins and lights would make me happy?  Now our camper has a plug and our electrical panel has been joined us in 2013. Priming all the walls and trim work took up most of my time this past week, and I have more trimming to look forward to.  The Hubs and I moved a few things in, like the fridge and stove and our grill along with little things that go outside.  We have been doing some joint projects and I must say we work well together.

The Adventure Has Started!!!!


I’ve been up to my eyeballs in house projects, and I must say that I’m enjoying every bit of it.  I knew that there were going to be lots of work and elbow grease taking place once we got the all clear for the house.  This week I’ve cleaned up all the debris from the Hubs and I taking down the kitchen ceiling, bleached and scrubbed walls, planted 6 foot trees (4 of them), and lots of other little things.  It’s been a great week even though I must say that I’ve worked harder this week than I have in a good long while.  I’ve taken lots of pictures and will continue to do so, just so that we can keep track of all the work we are doing.  This house has a lot of projects that we will be doing along and along and I can’t wait to start each and every one of them.  Here are a couple of projects that we’ll be working on. Life is good!

Heart to Heart


Having a heart to heart with The Hubs on Easter was something that was much needed and I must say it made me feel better.  I know that you are supposed to open up and express how you are feeling to your better half, but sometimes it’s hard to do.  In my life for the most part, I’ve bottled up my feelings instead of expressing them.  Granted that is not the best measure to take, though sometimes it feels as though that is what’s best.  It’s been a challenge but I feel that I’m doing better about opening up and saying how I feel.  He is a great man and is there for me unconditionally, which I am blessed and happy to have him in my life.
