Checking in after DC trip (Patreon)

Hello besties! I wanted to apologize for the sporadic posting on here over the past 2 months or so. Life was chaotic pre-move & we're still adjusting/unpacking post-move, so I'm just trying to fall into the rhythm of making content not only on YouTube, but also on here. I've been slaying the moving vlogs though & I'm so happy y'all have been enjoying them! It was fun sharing all the pre-moving news with you as "our little secret," so I'll definitely do more of that kind of "exclusive" updating in the future. For now, I'm loving checking in with you here via writing, photo & audio posts while I gear up for being able to post more behind the scenes reno videos on here & such. I think it will be fun to be able to do more "uncut" reno videos or include in music in them that I won't be able to on YT. Comment below if you have any other fun renovation ideas you'd like me to share more in depth on here.

As for right now, I'm on the train as I type this heading back from DC where I saw my sister & we saw Beyoncé! We didn't vlog to give ourselves some time off, but we did make some silly tiktoks & reels. We had a great time together just catching up & it was definitely a nice escape from all the moving tasks, but I'm ready to get back to it. While I was gone, Finley kept working on sanding all the wood floors upstairs so we can stain & seal them properly. He also did a big dump run (no trash service currently) & he ordered us a new KITCHEN SINK & FAUCET! Which I'm thrilled about because the current one is just incredibly small, inefficient & doesn't have a functioning sprayer.

His plan is to replace both the sink, faucet & sprayer while he also installs a dishwasher! YIPEE! I think that will be a huge upgrade for our outdated kitchen. If you're updated on the vlogs, we are still having some electrical problems because the previous owner made a chaotic "rats nest" of sorts with the wires in the electrical box. Many circuits are unlabeled & many outlets have no power running to them. Finley is trying to do an entire overhaul of that system on his own to make it ACTUALLY work & make sense, but we need approval from our power company before we do that.

ANYWAY! Those are my biggest updates right now. This was a long post, but when I get home I want to start just sorting some of our clutter filling up our kitchen/daily use areas & maybe just start garden & orchard planning? I know it's early as we won't garden until 2024, but I can't move all the bigger clutter (mattress, decor boxes) out of the kitchen area until Finley finishes our bedroom, so mama needs somethin to do! Lol LOVE YOUUUUU!
