Reality Check
Hey there! I thought it might be interesting for you to see what my house looks like RIGHT NOW, in the middle of two big projects.
We’ve been living like this for a while now. I built my countertop and even cut out the sink hole and then left the whole laundry room project to collect dust…
…while I get some kind of office built. I got my walls nice and smooth.
I got as far as purchasing a new fan and can lights this weekend but they’re still sitting in the boxes.
Because LIFE happens. Things come up with work, people think they need to have some fun on the weekends, Dr appointments happen, I have to pick people up from school — twice, because they forget they have band practice…
Life is why DIY projects always takes three times longer than expected. And that’s a good thing. Because LIFE is the important stuff.
Funny comments today. My first thought after looking at the photo were similar to Jacque’s…at least you have nice wide hallways, and good lighting in those hallways. I’m sure the most important stuff in your home is getting attended to, just fine.
LOL Well, we all have our threshold. I think mine is ever changing…
Oh yeah, I think we’re all used to it and I only SEE it when someone is coming over. Then I look around and think Holy crap, how did it get this bad? Then do nothing about it. haha
It’s important to keep our priorities straight. Family first — then DIY. LOL
I only dream of having a house that is actually done…and then we stay in it! LOL
