It’s been 6 months since the torrential rains of August brought
us to our knees with water, water, everywhere.
Pipes burst, electrical cables frayed, and the stars converged
to bring our little ranch house out of the 1980’s and into the 21st
Century.
With the help of our contractors, we’ve been rewired and
re-plumbed.
Doors, walls, and closets are
hung and painted.
Cabinets are in, fixtures
and appliances are working.
The place is
looking like a home on a real estate tour.
Even with a great general contractor working on our behalf, the construction process took an enormous amount of thought, management, and of course patience, and we’re glad to be done with it.
The result is storage – something our little home was sorely
lacking—and of course, beauty.
We’re at the end of the road. The
project’s over. We release the team to more and greater good. Do well and prosper, friends.
Here’s to celebrating life with all its ups and downs, and to the wondrous results we can achieve after time beneath the rubble.

What’s Been
Keeping Me Busy Lately
Love Those Wide
Open Spaces is a blog designed to follow my daily life as a freelance writer and
rancher. It’s a life full of constant
change and a wide scope of interests.
Freelance
writing, by its definition, requires the ability to write on a variety of subjects,
to juggle many assignments during the times of plenty, and lastly to fill the
void when checks are slow. That said, I’m
always writing.
Much of my work
is done for others such as corporations, websites, or articles penned
under another’s name. I’ve sold the
rights to these works, so they can’t be shared.
However, many
of my projects are available under my own name and can be read right here on
the web.
You can click on either the site or the story below to see them.
Check out what’s been keeping me busy lately!
It caught my eye because I am thinking of remodeling my kitchen, so I read the blog with interest. I hope I will be as satisfied as you.
ReplyDeleteRemodels can be a big pain, can't they! Good luck with your "new" home!
