A Time To Play and A Time To Hide




I spent the afternoon playing and hiding. Hubby was replacing the kitchen sink. He hates plumbing. The kids left. The dog and I hid away in my studio. He yells and cusses very loudly. We have all learned to just stay clear. However I have to stay close by just in case he needs a hand. I have lost track of how many trips he has made to Home Depot. Soon I have to pack that room up. It is the only room left with the yucky popcorn ceilings. Everything has to come out so new carpet can go down. The office will have to go in that room. Right now it is in the dining room. The dining room has to be staged as a dining room. I'm hoping I can leave a corner for me to create. I will go crazy if I can't. Especially if the house sits on the market for any length of time.

Becky, I feel your pain. The only rooms that arent completely torn up here are the craft room, bedroom, and bathroom! And now everything is inside hiding from the rain. I wonder if your hubby and mine are blazing the same trail to Home Depot? Our truck knows the way all by itself.

I don't envy all of that housework but I do envy the adventure you're about to take to Colorado. How exciting! It's funny that you can create such elegant lovely work with so much chaos going on. Art is the salvation of many of us, huh? Hope your daughter is doing okay with her leg and you are doing well with your family addition (and good for you - what an incredible thing to do to help someone like that). Have a good weekend!
