YOU GUYS! You haven’t heard from me because I’ve been dancing the past two weeks (oh, and working 😉). I’m dancing because I still can’t believe it. My drop ceiling is done! And surprise – we got new windows and our walls are painted too! I actually finished our basement drop ceiling last week, but …
Hey there, friends! I’m currently sipping on coffee in a giant Starbucks, the sun is streaming in the big windows, and writing this blog post – all across the table from the love of my life, who is reading a book for work. And oh yes, it’s my 33rd birthday. 😉 One of my goals …
