Happy Cinco de Mayo, friends! Are you celebrating!?!? We’re going to be celebrating by spending the weekend packing up our house for the big remodel that starts next week. And I have to say…..as excited as I am for it….there’s a huge part of me that’s wondering WHY we thought this was a good idea. HA! I guess it’s a little late for that.
You know how that is, though? When something is so far away that it’s easy to say yes to….and the, as the time comes closer and reality sinks in….it sounds less and less like something you actually want to do? I get that way a lot – with social plans, things I agree to help out with, and….apparently….remodels.
But alas, it’s happening. Because the cabinets have been built and the flooring has been ordered and the granite has been paid for. So all we’re really waiting on is….US! We need to pack up our living room, dining room, and kitchen. And when I say pack up, I mean pack it ALL up. Because at the end of all of this, those three rooms will all be one big space. And in the mean time, we’ll be living in a major construction zone.
