The last nip, two years ago, brought us a big room, a balcony, and a little galley kitchen. We finally figured out how to use the space.
Soon I will have a little workroom to myself! I'll make it a sewing room, but also my desk space where I deal with the day-to-day finances of our household.
But it's coming along nicely, thanks to my handy husband. At this point, my contribution is picking up his household responsibilities so he can put that time into the renovation. I'll keep you posted!

How exciting! I want more pictures.
And how, exactly, do you add more rooms? Are you building on to the house?
That is exciting. Any renovation is. Wish some would happen around here!
JJ, no, we take rooms away from the 2nd floor apartment. It used to be a 2-bedroom apartment, and it's now a 1-bedroom. (I posted pictures of the apartment in a previous blog:

More pictures coming, although our side is mostly an unattractive mess right now.
How exciting for YOU! I had a little work room for 9 months here...it was WONDERFUL. Then the older kids came home and I had to give it up. ;)
Margo!!!! A work room all for you. How. very. lovely!! I can't wait to see it. But, yes, I understand your reaction to the noise and dust; I'm the same way.
What a NEAT project! You will love it once it's done. But oh, I know the stress of home renovations. I've been known to be very yelly during ours.
Margo, I am sooo excited for you.. to be getting your own sewing/office. What fun this will be.
I so understand ,how hard the renovation process is..Eeeeh, the mess is never ending . But in the end.. So worth it..
I love my sewing room,It's ALL mine.. It's where I think up my projects, where I spend alone time. I sew, craft, and think.ha
Look forward to seeing it, when you finish.. Enjoy..
ps hope your reflux is doing better, Said a prayer for you.
Yay for the Thrifts! Can't wait to see.
That really is exciting! A woman needs a room of her own! (Says she who has no room of her own, but would love one...)
