ANYway...
Happy New Year, Friends! 2015 was a year of less frequent Mannsion posts, though there was some excitement like finishing the outside, building a garage over twice as big as the last one, and moving the in-laws' house with a crane. In 2016 I'm giving myself permission to shift away from the house blog. There are still and always will be things that need to be done, and every season we knock a few of them out. But I don't have that deep need to document every little thing at this point. Plus, I keep feeling like I'm repeating myself. It's like when I eventually stopped renewing my subscriptions to Shape and Runner's World because I felt like the same information was being recycled with a different model or photos. Like the television series, Dexter, some people just don't know when to quit.
Not that I'm quitting entirely. When we complete a bigger project don't worry, I'll let you know. The updates will most likely come a few times a year as opposed to a few times a month. Which is what it's been for the last year anyway.
I'm still waiting to throw that house-warming party but, at this rate, any old party will do. I mean, we have to get the rest of the kitchen cabinets in SOME day, right?!
Thank you to the friends and family who continue to support, compliment and read this blog. I sometimes get people I haven't seen in a while telling me they love reading about the house and that makes me truly happy.
See you in a little while.
