For better or worse

That’s the way it is. See things around here haven’t been that spectacular (and by around here, I mean around the cottage), but I’ve not really mentioned that my brother bought a place a mere four blocks away. That’s right, four blocks. And it currently looks like this:

My super cute bedroom. Bj actually spent one night here last week since I was with the little monkeys. I’m a little too freaked out, I need some more window coverings (I have some ghetto blankets over some of the windows), and maybe a bathroom sink.

Hopefully this will be resolved tomorrow. Right now there is a huge garbage truck sitting in my driveway full of yard debris, which is going to the dump tomorrow, then I can load up all this crap. Hope to see even more progress after this weekend.

    The rooms you have paintd look great! Owning a house is so much work…but it’s totally worth it in the end! I feel like we are always working on projects…they never get done! But, when it comes down to it, I would never trade my house for an apartment or something easier.

    I can hardly wait for more posts on Brents new home… It will be fabulous once that dry-rotted space is taken out and a totally cool fresh one is put in its place! Looking forward to seeing his progress now that your’s is almost done!
