Welcome 2022

It is hard to believe that another year has flown by.

     *Almost two years of working remotely

     *Mom had stoke just after “lockdown” - 3/28/20

     *A grandson who is 18 1/2 months old

     *Chickens in the backyard

     *And so on

Doing my best each day to keep my eyes on the Lord through all has been an anchor through some of the rough times.

They’re Here

 

Dad had been talking about chickens since last summer. We started the foundation of the chicken coop but soon realized it was a bigger project than anticipated. He hired someone to do the labor as he had the materials.  We still ended up doing quite a bit to make it fairly airtight.

The chicks are getting their feathers and growing so fast!

Blessings Today

What a day of blessings! I got to go to Costco and Winco with two of my favorite people ❤️ I have every other Wednesday off from my job and can’t think of a better way to spend them than with these two💕 

Jumping Back In

 Wow, I have no words to explain such a long absence!

Almost two years have past since my last post and many things have occurred since then, a few are:

     *living area finished

     *new job; same department 

     *covid invaded our world; lockdowns, work from home, isolation, slow to reopen and start living

     *mother had a stroke

     *parents cat passed away

     *new ‘family’ cat adopted

     *daughter had a baby (boy)

     *just finishing a chicken coop and run

I have recently been told that my job will most likely be 90% permanently remote. Due to my mother having dementia (currently moderate), and my father turning 80 this year and moving slower, this change is beneficial for our family.

Stalled

As you may have noticed -- there was a break in the remodel.  Life continues to move forward even if we want it to slow down :~)

The bathroom and trim painting are left to finish.

I've been blessed to have this work done and am super excited to have my living quarters all 'gussied' up and usable.

More pictures will be loaded after the July 4th weekend.

Little Finishes

We are on the last stretch for the kitchen!!  The baseboard, trim and crown moulding are chosen.  My sister and brother-in-law have started adding them.  I have a few pictures (including new hardware).

Continued Remodel Progress

Each week brings progress - sometimes a little and sometimes a lot :~)

Last weekend, the sink got installed and the lighting trim was added.

There is light at the end of the tunnel!!
