Grateful For This Time

On Monday Jason took the day off work and we ripped up the floors and I painted.  So all week...ok...three days we have been living with particle board floors and exposed tack strips.  It has felt like living in a construction zone.  I have even more empathy for my friends who have lived in a 'work in progress' much longer than I have.  Our routine is all off and it has led to sleepless nights for me.  Weird I know, but what can I say, I'm weird.

This evening we got the most exciting call, I have received all week, that our carpet will be installed in the MORNING.  No more dining in the living room at a card table.I think the kids will be kind of sad to have things back to normal because they have enjoyed having things all mixed up for a while.  Me...not so much.  

However, I am over the moon thrilled to be privileged enough to have the opportunity to be able to do some home improvement projects.  God has richly blessed us with a home and the ability to make it a little more 'us'.  We've waited many years to be in a construction zone, so I am grateful for this time.
