I'm feeling good today. We got the front and back of the house painted this week and the house is officially on the market. We even had a person that wanted to look at it but had to cancel because of a sick kid.
Saturday we went to the library. Wow, it was a great feeling! Yes, it's a little thing but huge for us. It has been forever since I have been out of the house. It is nice to be back.
I am very excited to see my friends for more than the minute it takes to drop off and pick up my kids. I have the most amazing friends. It has been so humbling. People have gone out of their way to help these last few weeks. Not only taking my kids but even providing a meal. Thank you SOOOOOO much to everyone. I really could never thank you all enough.
I am most excited to be a mom again. My poor kids have suffered the most through this whole thing. They have been troopers through it all.
So here are the before and after of the exterior of our house.
BEFORE
We had a major peeling problem.
DURING
Here is part of the house scraped. Painting was very time consuming because of trying to get up to the second level of the house and maneuvering around windows, columns, and bushes. I was often painting on ladders that were almost completely vertical.
