THE ART OF PATIENCE.
When you were a child, remember the times when Christmas felt like an eternity away? And when it finally did draw closer, you kept asking your mum over and over about when it was? And then on Christmas eve, you couldn't sleep from the excitement?
Well, as the years go by, you grow up and find out that Father Christmas wasn't real, and the joy of it fades, and then one day you realise that there isn't much that excites you these days.
Today, that feeling is back. I feel like a child again. I'm sitting here at work and really wanting to be at home. Because today, the cabinet maker is at my house installing my brand new kitchen.
And I can't wait!

How wonderful!
ReplyDeleteToday you can 'anticipate the good so that it may last longer' and I will be too waiting to see the pictures of your glorious new kitchen.
Happy day!

PS: Love, love, love the photo for today's post.
That sounds better than Christmas! You'll be enjoying it all year around..well just like the real reason for Christmas!
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see the photos! I remember that feeling from when we renovated our home a few years ago. It was a year of Christmases!
ReplyDeleteI absolutely love the feeling of being a child again. I can feel your anticipation. And we are all so excited for you. Hugs, Kymmie.

Looking forward to seeing the photos!
ReplyDeleteOh I remember that feeling only too well Kymmie. I still get it from time to time, but not often. I would TOTALLY get it if I was going home to a brand new kitchen though. Lucky you! Can't wait to see the finished product :o) xo
ReplyDeleteP.S. Love that pic!
BEST part of renovating. I bet you just stared all evening. Any sneaky peak photos?
ReplyDeleteOH FABULOUS!!! I'm COMPLETELY jealous, we are currently living with a 70's orange tiled kitchen!! LOL!

ReplyDeleteI know that feeling oh to well - and I'm so glad I do! We're in the process of getting a new garage - and I can't wait! Construction doesn't start until 1st Sept, but I'm still so excited!
ReplyDeleteOh and today is Hubby's birthday and I've splurged and bought him a PS3 that he's been hassling me about for years, so I can't wait to see the look on his face when he unwraps it tonight! Nothing like being excited for someone else's excitement. ;)
too good and neatly written sharing of your life
