The Worst Week

We are in the worst week of our renovation. I had major anxiety weeks ago just thinking about what our life would be like during this phase. Guess what? It’s worse than I ever could have imagined. Much worse. But… things are getting done. An end is in sight.

So, here’s the update-

  • We have one working bathroom. It looks like this-

027   028

  • We have no doors upstairs (which equals no privacy, anywhere!)
  • Our washer and dryer are in the garage. Luckily our neighbors are nice enough to let us catch up on a few loads at their house
  • Our clothes are hanging in our neighbors closets (again, nice neighbors. I bet they wish we would have moved!)
  • Everything is covered in thick construction dust, including us
  • Our painters come at 8:30 A.M. and leave at 5 P.M., I listen to them banging around all day
  • We all keep stepping on carpet tacks
  • We’re losing brain cells due to paint fumes
  • Daisy has paint on her paws

Okay, I’m done complaining. This week is almost over, I can’t wait!

Is it over, yet? Do we get to see pictures?

The worst week has extended into this week. We are so, so done with this mess.
