Thankfully it looks like we'll be moving back into our home at the end of next week. We're loving the way our house is looking and are so glad to have an end to all of this in sight. I imagine that by the end of August we'll be finished with all of this storm-related busyness, including the multiple phone calls to our mortgage company asking them to send the checks they were supposed to have already mailed, emails to our insurance adjuster to claim our depreciation money (so we can pay our contractor), and all of that hassle.
We finally got power back to our house (we've just had a temporary pole for construction purposes) a few weeks ago, so last weekend we finally installed the chandelier I bought last January for our dining room. I love it!
It's going to be nice to have more free time and for Blake not to be so stressed out and busy driving over to our house all the time. And maybe I'll find time to blog more; it's definitely fun to have a journal of some sort to reflect back on from time to time. Hope you're all well :)
p.s. I'm grateful for lazy Saturdays.

You must be ecstatic to finally be ready to move in! This has gone on long enough, and it is time to get out of the hotel and into the house:-) Many, many kind thoughts for all of the enjoyment that lies ahead!
Looking great. Can hardly wait to see the new improved version. Dr. RJJ
Yay! I love the new siding and interior, too!! What a beautiful chandelier! Those floors are gorgeous! I know you'll be glad to put all this behind you. What a crazy time it has been.
I can't wait!!!! It's almost over
I can't wait to hear that you're settled back in your house. What an ordeal you have been through!
Now you get your dream house! Look forward to you blogging more!
I want your wooden floors.
Thank goodness things are finally coming together for you guys. The house is looking so good :)
PS I'm having a lazy Saturday today too :D
I love the chandelier! Are there any chandeliers bigger than that one, but with the same design? I remembered the time when we moved in here. I was so excited to move all our things into the right places!
Alejamuel: Pottery Barn doesn't have any chandeliers like this that are bigger, but sometimes Overstock and Ballard Designs have similar designs--you could check those.
The gray paint does go better than the mustard color before. Kudos for the paint job! Looks like the next thing to keep in mind is maintenance. Well, try to use hot soapy water if a stain or discoloration persists after attempting to remove surface dirt or mildew. The hot detergent solution can be used to remove the stain while brushing. Then rinse the surface with clear water until all traces of detergent is removed. Hot water may more effectively remove both dirt and waxy or oily accumulations with less possibility of damaging the surface.
