Commit to the reno...

Home renovations reveal a lot about a person. I have discovered that I love swinging sledgehammers and knocking stuff out. The problem is knowing when to stop and not get too far ahead of yourself in your project. No one told us this! So instead of admitting to a mistake, I say "we have fully committed to the renovation and the experience"!

Meant to be...
I gave Mat one year to find a new house. One year before I started putting some money into our place and making it feel like "home." The search took us on drives to houses in the country, beside railway tracks and hidden in driveways thick with trees. Then we stumbled upon 379 Pine Street. A diamond in the rough. Smelly, musty and bursting with potential. It was perfect!
