Writing this post feels a bit like the one in which I announced I was pregnant; I’m finally bringing something HUGE in our lives into the blogosphere. Our partial home renovation, referred to as the ‘house project,’ has been on our radar for at least six years, if not seven. (I know this because we’d been working with our architect for at least a year before I was pregnant.) So, not only has the house project ramped up in the last year, it’s simply been IN our lives for quite awhile, despite the radio silence. I just didn’t feel like I could say anything until it was ‘official,’ and that took much longer than anticipated.
