Testing......

Do you ever feel like you're being tested?

I know all of us do from time to time....but there are days when I feel like my whole life is one big test......and I'm not doing very well.

So much has happened since I last posted....and so little.  I do not know how to begin this "reunion" so I will just begin...again.

I know I did mention that much of my life has been consumed with an "ambitious" remodel project on our home....

That work is mostly complete...well the "men's work."  Now comes mine....Tending to the unending boxes that have been unloaded from storage (and every single thing that was in the basement and therefore subjected to the Great Flood....'nother story for a 'nother time....).

And leave it to me to end up with a kitchen that was smaller than it was....

What was the point of this again?

Oh yeah....A laundry room (on the main floor)....and a bedroom with a bathroom that doesn't require precarious trips down a spiral staircase in the wee hours.

Yes, I will share photos....at some point....when it's done. HA!

For now, here are just a few random shots:

 Oops....sorry...that's the pool boy... So distracting..... (yeah, we redid the pool/patio too....)

 Master Bath

 Shower

 Laundry Room (like my new wash machine?)

 Frig

(New Dining Room/Old Kitchen)

And the fun continues....

Yesterday we levitated our garage:

And next thing I knew it disappeared.....

The mysteries, pain, and joys of life continue.

I truly wish to thank those of my amazing "followers" (or whatever Blogger is calling you these days) who have stuck with me through all this. I know, in my heart of hearts you were there, and it gave me more strength than you can know.  And to those who sent messages, and those random "wanderers" who found my blog on some walkabout and took the time to email me amazing words of encouragement, I can't begin to express my gratitude.....
