We ...Oh I can just imagine your feelings right now. We were pushing to finish our complete kitchen remodel in time for Thanksgiving last year, working late into the night every evening the week before Thanksgiving. Hooray, we got it done, and then - the something came up and our guests couldn't make it :-) I got to see that I had my hope in the wrong thing. My hope is built on nothing less than Mary Phttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11664614844565751599noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7554390.post-47297701113971509352011-12-22T22:04:53.503-08:002011-12-22T22:04:53.503-08:00hang in there.

Oh to have the mind of Christ...to see things the way He does.<br /><br />I am so thankful for His grace. That He knows above all that our ways are not His ways. That our thoughts are not His. <br /><br />Big hugs to you.mandihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13116676892734212010noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7554390.post-84757315562193338202011-12-06T11:46:26.947-08:002011-12-06T11:46:26.947-08:00LOVE this line:

No cooking here, and my bathroom sink is too tiny to bother clogging with scum from dirty dishes! Just lots and lots of paper plates and microwave burritos.<br /><br />I'm thinking Christmas will look like take-out. I'm not so into Hollywood mishaps. ;)Amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15729511504280715449noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7554390.post-7211732596380208192011-12-01T17:57:26.990-08:002011-12-01T17:57:26.990-08:00I don't know if this will make you feel any be...I don't know if this will make you feel any better, but I am amazed at that pic of your hubby in the kitchen!! Is this really the same space?! It is already looking great, Amanda. Do you have your oven yet? Are you washing dishes in the bathroom?
