Coming to you from a (still) gutted kitchen...
We’ve submitted our contractor estimates to insurance and are now waiting to see what they come back with. From there, we’ll push back to fight for whatever else we can get and then hopefully have a project started within the next week or so here (fingers crossed!).
While we’re in the waiting phase, I thought it’d be fun to share some of the process so far from demolition to showroom samples to design renderings:
Homeschool: Second Semester
Outside of the kitchen remodel, most of my attention has been back to homeschool as we finished our first semester and are starting the second half of the year. I can’t believe it’s all going by so fast!
After a bit of trial and error, I’ve found a few TK workbooks that I’m very happy with, so we’ll be working through the rest of those along with our subscription boxes, field trips, and a few other fun things I have planned for the rest of the year.
I’ve also been committed to my weekly yoga classes (shoutout Micaela at Class 46!) and getting back on my podcast/audiobook grind as well. Here are my latest listens:
Hunt, Gather, Parent by Michaeleen Doucleff — currently two chapters in
Intentions for the Next 2 Weeks
Using the last bit of this post as a sort of journal/to-do list/place to write things down and get focused:
Work on Master Bath designs alongside kitchen remodel
Get Valentine’s Day ready!
Plan our next family trip
Continue to declutter and get the house organized… while this feels like a never-ending task, my current focus is the kids’ play room/classroom/bonus room
