Since I can't find a stinking job in
Utah, I decided to come home for
a little bit to see if my parents could
keep me busy. A month ago my parents
started remodeling the house. We got the
walls retextured, new carpet, new countertops
and wood floors. When I fist came home I didn't
even have a bed. I slept on 3 memory foams. It
wasn't too bad, but I was really happy when
I got my bed back.
At one point we had no countertops, sink or stove.
The granite people put boards on the cabinets for a
little bit. Not for our convenience, just to measure.
We didn't have carpet in certain sports for a long time.
You had to wear your shoes, or be extremely careful
where you stepped.
Since we were having wood floor being put in
the kitchen, the refrigerator couldn't be in there.
It had to take some getting use to in this spot.
All this construction was a good learning experience
for me. We forget how lucky and blessed we are
to have all of these things. Some people live with
dirt floors, have no counter tops, stoves, sinks,
refrigerators, beds ect. Once they (kind of) get
taken away from you, you realize how blessed
you are to have them. I was grateful for this
reminder even if it was annoying at times.
