Flipping Update

July 12, 2021 · 1 Comment

We’ve been on a long hiatus. I sold my last house in February, 2020, and when the pandemic hit, I had an offer in on another house. My husband was worried about the unknown in front of us and wanted to be liquid, as we had no idea what was to come and we assumed…

Poolside

July 27, 2020 · 2 Comments

It’s been almost 2 years since we broke ground on our “pool house”, and a year and a half since we “moved in“, but we’ve finally reached that point where I feel like it’s come together. I apparently wasn’t good at taking any before pics, so I’ll throw it back to 2015 for this “before”….

Breath of Spring from Home

March 21, 2020 · Leave a Comment

Last Tuesday, I headed to Target in need of some essentials for home. Nope, I didn’t get toilet paper, though that may have been the smart thing to do. But I decided to give myself a bit of time to peruse some new items out for spring. I got an Easter dress and sandals for…

Winter To-do’s

February 18, 2019 · 4 Comments

Here we are, more than halfway through February, I’m finding myself in an unprecedented position… I’m wanting winter to slow down! The month of January was good and productive. I love getting stuff done inside and feeling zero guilt about not getting outside. The stars aligned when the kids went back to school after Christmas….

Flip House Friday (and Naples and my bum)

June 23, 2017 · 1 Comment

Happy Friday! I missed last week as I was just coming home from a downright awesome trip with my husband to Naples, Florida to celebrate our 10 year wedding anniversary.  And I’m not going to lie; it’s a week later and I’m still a little bummed it’s over. Naples is beautiful, and I loved the…

Take Your Burden to the Lord: Free Printable

Take Your Burden to the Lord Free Printable | inbetweenchaos.com

You know how sometimes music lyrics can strike just the right chord with you just when you need it?  That is what this song did for me. I was struggling with a personal issue in high school when the choir sang this song in church one Sunday. It was like a weight lifted off my shoulders. It…

Bath Update & A Little Paula Abdul

Bath Update | inbetweenchaos.com

We had some awesome weather here last week, which gave me a chance to head out to the garage and make some progress on my bath projects.  Which is good.  Because I have a lot of them! I stained and cut the wood for shutters to go on the window.  Now I need to touch…

Why I Love January

January 15, 2017 · 1 Comment

I’ve said it before and it definitely hasn’t changed: I’m a spring and summer gal, and I always feel a little blah when I sense summer slipping away.  But I also hate the phrase, “I’m looking forward to…” because by it’s very nature, you are looking past the present rather than living in it.  I…
