Exactly 3 Months of Complete Radio Silence.

No, I did not quit writing this blog.  That was not the intention.  I would like to think, if I decided to completely give up on Tru Stories, I would end the series with something a little more dramatic than a list of my ten favorite books.  It doesn't feel like I would go out like that.
As you know, we have been deep in a pretty massive remodel and for lack of a better term "Sh!t Got Real".  My brain could only handle so many details and something had to go... ie. Blogs. Reading and writing blogs. 
Also ie. Some pretty basic parenting skills were ignored.

I don't really enjoy showcasing the inside of my home on the Internet (Privacy, Fear of Judging, I hate to clean...) But to prove we really have been working, I'll post a few.

Today's Post: The Mess
Actually, these pictures are the Good Mess.  They don't even come close to showing the Bad Mess we lived in... Why?? Because when your children are living in the deep dark places of remodeling filth, you really don't wanna take a picture of that.  No one needs to see that (DCFS...) No One.







Sometimes you think you are just going to paint a wall next to a bathroom that is not currently even being worked on... and after you scrape at that wall for a bit you realize... wait a minute... we might have a problem here... and come to find out the pipes are leaking and rotting inside of the WALLS YOU WEREN'T EVEN IN THE PROCESS OF REMODELING AND THEN YOU HAVE TO CALL THE PLUMBERS OUT AGAIN TO WORK ON A TOILET THAT YOU DIDN'T EVEN THINK NEEDED TO BE WORKED ON!!!
That was a fun day...


I'm going to do my best to showcase what we have done... Maybe that will be excuse enough to forgive my absence.
And we'll see if anyone is even still checking this site...

I'm trying to figure out this new floor plan from pictures and it's so different I feel like I'm actually looking at a new house. Exciting!
