little bit of good news

When everything around me seems to be going wrong, one little glimmer of hope peeked through yesterday. When the housing market crashed in 2006, so did our dreams of finishing building our house. Thankfully we made great progress in the year prior, but the second floor with our bedrooms got put on the back-burner for now six years! Well, yesterday, we were issued the building permit to finish the house! I'm so excited even though we barely have the money to do it! It will be good for us to have this project again. Building a house can put a ton of strain on a marriage but my husband and I work pretty well together. Plus this gives us something to look forward to - a finally complete house.
