Long time, no see

I bet you can't guess what I'm about to say.

Drum roll, please...

WE ARE STILL NOT FINISHED!

I have so many pictures ready to share, but not ONE room is completely finished. **sigh**

Thankfully, we are meeting with a contractor this weekend. We plan to let him finish the house. I wish we were able to finish the driveway and the exterior of the house, but it's not looking like that's going to happen. Can you say money pit?

At any rate, if we can get the inside finished, I'll be one happy girl. :)

Between houses

I won't lie. I went crazy about a week ago, thanks to this renovation. We are between houses and staying wherever our heads may lead us. One night with my parents. Another night with my in-laws. The only one in this family who isn't affected by all this is our daughter. Miss Priss will be 18 months old in a week and she LOVES staying with her grandparents.

At any rate, it's not all bad. My in-laws live on a former working farm, which means there is a lot of land to explore. Because the property backs up to a national forest, there are several fire access roads that the government maintains. Many of these roads cross through their property. This makes for some mean four-wheeler trails. My husband, Shannon, decided he was taking me to the top of the mountain in front of their house. I am not a country girl, despite living in a small town. I was terrified, but I wouldn't be outdone.
