Sneak Peek
Here's another quick look at my new house. I can't show you great amounts of it because, honestly, it's still covered in stuff! Stuff with no homes quite yet. Not enough hours in the day to unpack. And yes, that makes me crazy. A long awaited camping trip for Joel was top priority this weekend, and of course the Clothesline last weekend. So not much time for things like blinds, hanging art, porch furniture, or plants. Even though I want to put stuff together so bad, these distractions are nice. Clothesline was really fun, and so relaxing. I can't wait for the next one so I can have my head cleared a bit. Even though I like busyness, life is more about those times that you can pause and be thankful. The fruit you gain from relationships is better than all your clutter being put away. I know that I will host many get togethers with toy cars and grubby high chair in the way. That's alright, realness is better than hipness or even (dare I say) cleanliness. Can I get a witness?
My closets and my cabinets are beginning to be filled and I have a mailbox and a garbage can. I must officially live here! I still have to pinch myself sometimes. Seems like forever. My children play with neighborhood kids and new friends. Riding bikes all over, and scooting on scooters. Being able to pour a cup of coffee and walk across the street to the park, awesome.
My easel sits in the smack middle of my house with Lifeblood sitting there looking monstrous. There may not be a wall for it? We'll see. This isn't a big art house. Maybe it's time for some more intentional trading?
