you may recall, i am not a huge fan of our stupid gross brady bunch mansion. when we rushed the decision to settle in wsnc, we chose this house for it’s size, property, cost, and potential. then slowly, we began chipping away at all the things. paint. carpet. lighting. popcorn ceilings. a new deck. etc. […]
stupid new house
febz blog. in a timely fashion.
whereas january felt like it was seven months long, i blinked and february was gone. our february this year was pretty darn uneventful. outside of my stone mountain hike, all of the happenings of february qualify for this “monthly recap post” if that tells you anything about the excitement level over here. still mostly rolling […]
