So Its Been Awhile.....

So its been awhile since I last posted.....and by awhile I mean at least two months! I apologize, but Markus and I have been struggling to find a balance in our lives between the house renovations, responsibilities at work and just relaxing/enjoying life. I can officially say that the "novelty" of renovating has long worn away, and we are in a critical mode where we need to make progress when we come to work, as we can't live away from our house much longer!

We both knew this was going to be a crazy undertaking, but I don't think we could foresee what it exactly would be and feel like. It has been very weird going back to work and not living at our house. Getting ready everyday in someone else s house, having supper at someone else's house and then going to bed on a blow up mattress every night! We have actually started to really miss our house, that we both when ever we can stop by during the week to get the mail and be in the house, last night we even rented a movie and watched it upstairs "just like old times" as we wanted to be in our space again.

Basically we have decided that we will move back to the house over our Christmas vacation in December, whether the house is done or not (and it won't be) - this way we have enough time to unpack things that we can and to clean properly. Then we will just continue to live here and continue to work at the house bit by bit and put it all back together! We will also be having another house warming party once the house is back to normal, so clear your schedules for sometime in the spring of 2012!
