dining room

In case it’s not obvious, I’m super behind on our project. Like painfully. We were already moving slow and then my dad had a stroke while working here Saturday. He had just stepped off the ladder and went down. HE’S OK! But he did spend a few days in the hospital and obviously scared us all pretty badly. He was treated very quickly which reversed any symptoms and he’s basically like it never happened. So strange, so scary, and SO puts things in perspective. Dad, next time you want to get out of ORC, find another way of telling me. But actually, he’s still back working on it anyway with some help from our handyman because he can’t stay away.

It’s here, it’s here! I’m excited and nervous, but mostly excited for this season’s One Room Challenge. If you’re not sure what it is, its a bi-annual event hosted by Linda Weinstein and showcases twenty Featured Designers as they’re challenged to design and renovate, a space in 6 weeks.*
