The start of almost being there ...

Yes, I suppose you may be right.  It is most unusual for someone to create a blog, particularly a blog about building a future for one's family, post build.  I had every intention to create this blog, over a year ago when dear Husband and I signed the contract.

And in our haste (I should have known better) we madly signed on this dotted line; handing over the plans of our dreams and hoping for this builder to turn those into reality.

Did I mention that we signed that contract over a year ago? Actually, 1 year, 1 month and 10 days ago.

So now, as I stare at my house almost completed but not quite yet, I look again at that contract I signed, then at the mounting variations .. and wonder, how much am I prepared to fight.   It's not a disaster - in fact, quite the opposite.  The workmanship is faultless, but .... I don't know.  The lustre has gone, the excitement of seeing years of dreams eventuate ... all fading.  And the frustrations have set in.

So now, this blog will capture my musings; of life, love and all things encompassing.  It will hopefully help me reconnect with those dreams.  I'm focussing on the positive; let's work with these beautiful bones and turn her into my dreams -- our home.


At frame stage
