Wednesday, we had heat and hot water again! Do you know how wonderful it feels to take a shower in your on house again? Not to mention not having to stay in one closed off room with a heater blasting! Two weeks without a furnace is…in the dead of winter…not a good thing. You can say it’s been extremely difficult and I got so behind on so many things, but we’re back in business, scarred, but we’re here!
I’m also excited to finally get back in the kitchen and be able to cook/bake/test/shoot recipes again! Normalcy (in the midst of TONS of school work and exams…ugh!) Happy Friday and weekend! I hope YOU are nice and warm wherever you reside! xoxo
