OMGOODNESS redoing a house is an unbelievable amount of work and $$$$$.
It can be a real stresser on a relationship. This kitchen started as an oversized sad sorry excuse for a space. Literally it had an 18" wall oven and all combined 35" of counter top. Now it has a standard range and many many FEET of counter space. We took it down to floor joists and wall studs. Seriously it would take an hour to type out all the work. Then as we were within a few days of done the wax ring went out on the upstairs toilet. Yeah....zero budget and I had to gut the bathroom too. Talk about draining.
:th I much prefer doing smaller tasks going forward.
I got the blood sugars down to a reasonable level. :wee Now just have to be careful the rest of the day to keep them there.
It turns out my cholesterol med the doctor added put me back a year on my control of the diabetes. I am no longer taking it but it is starting over with gaining control.

I am always happy to hear your continued improvement too. We were all very worried about you for quite some time. 🤗🤗🤗 One day and one step at a time is all we can do.

Yes, it was tons of money 😱 and we did most of it to save $$$. Our kitchen here is nice, but not much room. Going all the way down to nothing is the pits 😳 but sometimes that's all you can do. Bathrooms are horrible to deal with and plumbing, he doesn't like. I don't mind painting, but the rest not so much.

So happy your blood sugars are down, you sound like me and my blood pressure 🤔 one reading its good and the next its high. That's the kind of stuff we are dealing with, all the meds I'm on are messing with my BP and we have to keep twiking my meds.
Hopefully, it won't take long to get out of your system and you'll be all straightened out.

Yes, one day at a time is what I'm trying to do. Some days I get so depressed about everything and its really hard to perk back up. Those are the days that I question why did I make it? 😞. Luckily I don't have a lot of them, but more than I'd like.
I'm so glad I've made some friends here 🤗

Hopefully, you'll be able to stick around 😊 DH talked me into joining since we have chickens and I need to learn more about caring for them while he works.

Glad you are well. All is well here too. I finally got my Guesthouse renovated and have been open for business since October 1st. Business has been good despite the Pandemic. My puppy is now 1 and 1/2. I'm up to 17 hens and 3 roosters and still have my 2 bunnies. Also just starting renovating another house....I think its my calling. Lol

Hi Suzi! How have you been?

Doing well here. 7 months into working on Thing 3. Feel like crap because of that and Thing 2 wanting to stay up past 11 most nights but otherwise things are well.

Thing 2 is now 18 months and talking up a storm. He regularly uses full sentences and runs EVERYWHERE.

We also found out that Thing 3 is another boy.
