it’s taking longer than usual but so is everything in my life right now.  Once it’s done I can schedule the plumber and the electrician and order the bathroom fixtures and dh can start building the wall and we can buy and start installing the kitchen and storage solutions for the bedrooms and the new bookcases . . . we are OVERHAULING the house WOOHOO!  I love our 1940’s charm–but the functionality and storage challenges are unreal sometimes!  I  mean, I’m finally going to be able to move the refrigerator into the KITCHEN!  It’s currently housed in the laundry room

I’m  loving IKEA for storage solutions.  We’re getting the Billy bookcases with glass doors that are going to function as picture frames which will show off our children in a very functional and beautiful way.  I need to find out how much space is in the gap to know if I will be able to do frame matte boards or something thinner like wallpaper or wrapping paper.

In the  meantime I’m working on tentative budgets and time lines which is keeping me busy and giving me plenty to keep me up nights LOL
