I’ve always wanted an old house of my own to fix up and make it what I want. But today I hit the wall. Unearthing issues with this house has become exhausting. Keeping Barbara safe has been exhausting. Dealing with contractors that don’t show up, don’t communicate, don’t do their work correctly, just want our money for doing subpar work has become exhausting. Unpacking boxes has been exhausting. Adam told me to go for a walk and take a break while Barb was at school. It helped. He is smart. 💕Sitting in a coffee shop and drawing helped. Calling my dad helped. Hot soup helped. Breaks are good. 🏡🙃 #thisoldhouse

It’s feeling a little more like home...especially with @thewrkncacnter home.🏡 #thoselegs 💕 #gladheishome #newfloors by @henningshardwoodfloors
This dim sum place brings me back to Asia in a way that I’ve needed lately. It’s even better when @thewrkncacnter is with us. 💕🙌🏽🥡🍜🥟

I think I need to paint this. It kind of already looks like a painting though. 😍🍃🍂
