I am ready for progress. I am ready to build walls, install windows, sheet rock and yes, even mud and sand. I am ready for my house to be torn up, for that constant state of disarray. I am ready to cook out of a basement and wash dishes in my bathtub. I am ready.
We received our building permit in late December for our kitchen addition and I was naïve to think that we were going to trudge outside in subzero temperatures and in the pitch black to work every night and weekend. Considering that we have about four feet of snow in our backyard right now, I am not sure if mobility would even be feasible. I know, we could work wearing snowshoes! At any rate, spring is just around the corner and we are gearing up for our project. Our downstairs laundry room is almost complete, and looking very nice I might add. We still need to add the dropped ceiling, can lights, flooring and trim. When it is finished, I think I might actually “hang out” in my laundry room. You might even be getting an invitation that would read something like this:
The Johnson’s are having a party
Location: Laundry Room
Well, probably not, but it will be nice to have such a clean and polished space for some of the most loathsome chores. Who knows, maybe it will change my perspective on doing laundry . . . then again, maybe not.
