It's been a while, hasn't it?
I stopped blogging consistently last year because I felt like all I talked about were sad things happening in my life. Or if I wasn't talking about those things, I felt guilty that I was thinking about other things.
As a quick update, my mom has moved in with us permanently. Over the holidays, we moved her out of the house she's lived in for 15+ years, and now she is with us full time becasue she could no longer live alone. This is sad, because she's only 52, but it's also wonderful because we get to see her every day and I know she's being taken care of.
The Mr. and I are continuing on with all the random projects we've got going on. In 2013, we completed our Master Bath Remodel
(pictures to come) and bought the cutest little house that we were able to rent out only 15 days after closing.
(We like to call it "Starting our Empire".) The tenant even signed a 2 year contract!
And today, in fact, we are having the large cottonwood tree in our front yard cut down. Branches have been dropping from it for the past year, and an Arborist told us it was dying, so the Mr. wanted to make sure the tree didn't fall on our house. Perhaps I'll post pictures of that too.....
maybe!
So, while we struggle with the sad things in life, I am reminded of all that we have to be happy about. I can't wait to share more happy news to come!
