We've started work on the bathroom!!! The awesome super carpenter guy hiding his face is John, the husband of my friend Melanieπ He's already squared up the step for the toilet and closet area (we have wierd plumbing, don't ask π) and is fixing the wall to ready it for hanging sheet rock. I have to pick up some mildew killer/sealant spray for the damaged wood and walls and then we'll be able to move forward with mudding, sanding, and eventually painting after that cures for a few days! I'm so relieved that all the problems that weren't tackled by the previous contractor are FINALLY being fixed! There's quite a bit to do, but it's getting doneπ¦β€ #bathroom #bathroomredo #fixit #diywithhelp #farmlife #farm #thankgoodnessforfriends
The toilet has been re-installed and the tile was grouted today! Next up for this room is a new sink cabinet, fixing the walls, then on to painting! #sohappy #beerbudgetchampagnetaste
Prayers for @thenookdolls today and every day!π¦β€

I found this "ugly sweater" at Wal-mart on my last excursion to town. Of course I bought it, 'cause foxes, duh! I'm thinking immediately after Thanksgiving is the appropriate time to start wearing it, although I'm appropriate all year 'round... *ahem* Anywho, let's roll the hashtags! #uglysweater #itstooearlyforxmas #merryfoxmas #whyyesidolovefoxes #craftymama #shutupimhavingfun

I am totally loving this look on @chimamanda_adichie made by @kikikamanu β€β€β€ For those who don't know about her, Chimamanda Adichie is an activist for women's rights, a TEDTalk scholar, and an author whose works include Purple Hibiscus and Half of a Yellow Sun. She is a fashion icon and has started Project Wear Nigerian with her sisters. She strives to wear clothing made by Nigerians to showcase their work and bring more business to them. Follow her story, not just for her looks, but for her words. She is an inspiration and a person I want Leocadia to have as a role model as she grows upβ€
