Over the years that we’ve lived here this house has gone many transformations but I have to say these stairs are one of my favorites. We’ve lightened the walls up, painted the stairs a dark gray so this runner could shine like the diamond of colors it is. Going thru photos and the various stages of the stairs is incredible. We changed out the window (the last of the original windows).

Stress! How have we been managing?
After being home since March with a husband working from home and an 12 yr old finishing up school last year remote then starting this year virtually I’ve been purging items. Clothing, excessive furniture, baby items and honestly anything that hasn’t been used or useful for our lifestyle lately. To say it’s been cathartic is an understatement. I joined Instagram as well which has been both interesting and eye opening. The peer pressure is outrageous if people that follow some of the influencers have don’t like what they talk about or provide the content they want to see the bullying is unbelievable. I’m glad my account isn’t in that realm. I’ve also really enjoyed Pinterest for ideas and general info.
I guess what’s really saved the mood around here is taking pride in he home we live in. While DIY is fun even the 12 yr old is getting into it. We repainted her room and she’s been personalizing it.
Well we did a thing last weekend.
Welcome to the family Bruno!
Bruno joins the other pack members Olive a Goodendoodle age 7 and Sophie boxer age 3. He was a little shy at first but he’s definitely warming up to everyone.
Over the past year I’ve been doing something I truly love. I am now an Arbonne Independent Consultant. I’m actually loving helping people replace their every day cosmetics and personal care products with quality clean products. I have to say I’m loving the new Age Well line. October the holiday line comes out and I’m excited to see what will be released
Ceilings!
I had looked at this ceiling with the strips on it for far too long. Finally a plan was set and we got to work. It wasn’t easy but determined to finish it off with a new ceiling fan too.
