Glutton for Punishment...

Happy New Year, my Friends!!  Only a couple weeks late, huh?  I hope all of you are on a path to make all the changes the New Year seems to make us want to do. 

As you probably know, we just made a huge move which involved a LOT of work!  So you'd think we'd be happy to just enjoy some time off and our new surroundings, right??  Well, apparently not!  Today starts the beginning of a remodeling/redecorating project that may take quite awhile.  Yikes!!  What were we thinking?

Here's the before pic on the first phase.  This area is open to our bedroom and we're going to close it in and change the cabinetry.  Should be a HUGE difference!  Next is the kitchen, then all new flooring, painting, plumbing and lighting fixtures, etc.  I know we'll enjoy it when it's done, but getting there will be a chore.


So not sure when I'll actually get to quilt anything!  Although this might be a great time to be hiding out in my room alot. 

See you soon~

Does every house needing an upgrade have those "lovely" beauty bar lights? I still have one bathroom with them. Hiding in your room and sewing sounds like a plan. If things get rough...you can come here and sew with me.

Happy New year to you too! Looks like you are going to be busy~ hiding and stitching sounds like a good plan. ;-)

Hi Glenna, Happy New Year! Good to see you blogging again. I'm sure all the work & inconvenience will be worth it. We just went thru that with our whole downstairs. At least I got a new sewing room out of it all. Hope you find lots of time to go hide away from it all & get in some stitching time. Hope my post doesn't show up 4 times or more. Having trouble with google verification. Just warning ya in case... :)

Isn't it fun?! LOL
There is a great amount of satisfaction in making a new house your own, though.
Can't wait to see the "After" pictures. :-)
