Making Due in Total Chaos

One of the down sides of renovating is that you are surrounded by total chaos until it’s all done. Thank goodness, our house has a small kitchen upstairs (upstairs was used as a suite) so we have that small space to cook in.
Did I mention SMALL? I only have 1.5 sq ft of counter space. Seriously – all you see in the picture, that’s the whole thing. The room is 5 feet wide. So be very impressed that I managed to cook a full thanksgiving dinner a couple weeks ago!
Anyway, if we didn’t have the second kitchen, it would be a lot worse.
Hey Nicky,
is it just me or does your ticker not move?!?! I sware it has been saying 1m 2w 3d for the longest time now!!!

Wow, I admire you for going through all these renovations. We can barely get motivated to paint… and we’ve been in a new house 6 years!
You put up with all the hassles now… but just imagine how wonderful it will be to have it all done and just the way you want it!
Hummmm… well, let’s see here. Ticker…
We “officially” were on our way Christmas day last year – so that is like 10 months +. So that one is out of date.
And our file was in Ethiopia Sept 3. So, that’s about 1 1/2 months ago. So it looks like that one works.
I know – it is a little funny, isn’t it? I’ve tried other tickers, but they are all very horizontal and don’t fit in the blog. Anyone else found different square tickers out there?

Oh man, not making me look forward to our kitchen remodel! Keep it up and I am looking forward to after pictures!
I really like your blog!! Especially the fact that all the Canadian adopters are in one spot.
I am enjoying reading about your journey.
Carissa – we should have some pics soon – as soon I find the darn cable for the camera…
Glad you like our blog, Jody! Yes, I find it really nice to see how many other Canadian fams are adopting from Ethiopia. There aren’t actually THAT many of us – but it seems that a large portion have a blog:-)
Cheers
