The Bounty

Today I can't help but think of my beginning pantry clean out as a time of true bounty!  We feasted on Lasagna for dinner and delicious brownies for dessert.  So far so good!  I had already decided that we would have lasagna last week and had the cheese ready in the refrigerator.  I thought it would be a great way to relieve the anxiety my family might have been feeling when I announced that we were having pantry clean out month.

This morning my dad and my husband started and finished framing in the laundry area that is an eye sore in our kitchen.  My husband is putting the mud on the sheet rock right now and hopefully by early next week it will be fully finished and in use.  I am so excited to have this final project that is encompassed within our remodel done.  We declared our remodeling over a few weeks ago only to realize that no we are not finished.  This messy area had to be addressed.  I will be posting before and after pictures very soon.  Until then I will leave you in a cloud of imagination.  I can barely contain my excitement to be finishing up our home and moving on to small things that improve upon what we have done or are small little upkeep projects etc.  That is never done and I am really looking forward to enjoying not having such a full plate of to do projects on the burner.  I can feel a sense of enthusiasm that had been lost to near burn out over the long amount of time it has taken to remodel returning now that I know that we are turning a corner.  What a beautiful view there is around that corner.
