I see the light

There is a light at the end of tunnel for Bear's job! He has been working Wed-Fri from 6pm-6am every week for about 3 months now and it's been a hard adjustment for the both of us. For those 3 days we don't see eachother except for about 15 mins in the morning. When he gets home from work I am leaving to go into work. And its been harder to sleep at night. At least now with my sister living with us it has helped alot! Its also been screwing up with Bear's sleeping and since he has been working there he doesn't really get to sleep...and you know what happens when men don't get their sleep :] During all of this he is still running his remodeling company, which he has been blessed with a BUSY schedule. So on Monday and Tuesday he is working construction and wed-fri working construction during the day and working nights at Toyota. He sleeps for maybe 3 hours in the mornings when he gets home.

So with him being busy with his construction he emailed his boss and asked if he could become part-time and without hesitation his boss said YES!!!!!!! So starting in February he will only be working 1 night a week instead of 3! This makes me so happy for him! I am happy that I will be able to see him more and that we will be able to do more stuff together!

Remodeling

When buying a new house I still think there are changes that need to be made to make it "yours". With Bear also being in the remodeling business it has it perks to having him being able to do things to our home. I am a visual person and I will not know if I will like the end result until I see the finished product. Bear on the other hand can vision it and will know what the end result will be. I don't question him but sometimes I worry its not going to look as good I hope for. I learned now to not question Bear and let him do his thing and it will end up great.

When we bought this house it came with the stove push in range. We had a double oven and gas stove top so Bear's vision was to end up putting them in this kitchen. Again I wasn't sure how it would look, but I LOVE how it turned out. Yesterday Bear spent all day in the kitchen and finished it all up. I am greatful that Bear is very handy at doing things around the house and making it something that we love.

Here is where all the changes were made

Old oven range


the new gas stove top


The desk area


desk area gone and now the new place for the double oven (ignore the mess)
