Here’s a wordless explanation of why I’m missing in action, for the most part:
So the devil greets a guy at the entrance to hell and offers him a choice:
Burn for all eternity reads a sign on the door on the left.
Live in your house while it’s being remodeled announces the second.
The poor dude says: “It’s a crapshoot, don’t you think?”

wow! :O
Oh my goodness, Victoria! That kind of chaos has to be so unsettling. No wonder you’re taking a break from the blogging with so much in real life keeping you busy! I hope that it’s all back to normal for you now.
oh my….so this is why you are still in the painting…smiles…
Thanks, all. Painters are here today…time to clean out, simplify!
I know exactly what you are going through. I’ve had years of this. I just think we have finished and then another project pops up. It’s the dust……………
Hope it’s all you wished for when finished.
My daughter is going through this – as a precaution, they first built themselves a new shed in the garden as a bolt hole.
Breathe deep, be ultra-kind to yourself and make no life changing decisions at this time!
Point taken. God speed!
You DO like living dangerously don’t you ! Sigh.
Best of luck…will keep you in my thoughts and prayers during this stressful time.
Peace and love,
