Be kind, rewind...

Well hello there.


It's been a while. Yes, please do not remind me. So MUCH has happened since I've blogged last.


Let me catch you up on where I have been the past few months...


After the utter destruction of our fish tank, we came to realize just how much damage occurred. We relocated to a Residence Inn a few miles from our house and have since made it our home. Baby items flourish the 2-bedroom hotel room. Diapers pour out from the closet and socks pile up in the corners. Though, I must say, I've taken a liking to having a maid make our bed and bring in new towels every day. Why does she do this? Well, because there is no 'Do Not Disturb' tag on our door to shut her out. bru-ha-ha-ha

Anyways. Now two months after the tragic event. We are now FINALLY moving forward. It's now time to do what I do best: SHOP!!!

We have many things to buy: Flooring, Paint, Cabinets, Counter tops, Back splash, Base Mouldings, Window Treatments, etc. etc. 

We went through a few scenarios and tried to plan exactly how we would piece it all back together...

Flooring: Would we lay tile AND carpet?
Walls: Would we have an accent wall?
Window treatments: Would we go back to ugly brown curtains?
Cabinets: Would we choose wood or wood knock-off?
Counter tops: Tile, granite or Tupperware?
Mouldings: What are those?

I'll share the options and struggles we encountered while on this journey to reclaim our home! I will also try to stay on target by keep the formatting the same (where appropriate).

First pass: Flooring!!!

Until next time...
