I affectionately refer to my hubby as The Juggernaut, of comic book fame, because the guy NEVER. STOPS. MOVING. Running his business is demanding and tends to strap him to his desk, so when he finally leaves his home office he tends to rev up with seemingly unstoppable momentum. Besides daily blessing the family by cooking dinner (his “commute” to decompress, or so he says), he tends to always, always have a home-improvement project (or several) underway. He’s FOREVER tinkering, creating, constructing, and fixing up our houses.
A few recent fixes:
lumber for Christmas! emptying our kitchen, family & dining rooms to have the hardwood floors refinishedour fridge & dining table’s temporary appointment in our living room/librarytwo televisions jammed into husband’s denhe ripped up all the old carpoet and pad to have the existing floors extended into an additional roomLittle Man’s a wiz at carpet tackshe also modified the fireplace surround for a more seamless, modern lookthe flooring guys wove in the old with the new for a seamless transitionbefore the sanding & stainbefore… it was a very yellowy-orange 90’s oakselecting our stain– we chose “aged barrel” (middle right)working from my sister’s house while the stain curedpoor kitties were locked in our room for daysfinished in time for Christmasreplacing all the upstairs doorknobs (he did the downstairs last year)taking calls while he workswe had leftover flooring from our beach house remodel and so ripped up the carpet and installed the extra planks in Center Sister’s room to make dance practice easieragain with the carpet tacksfinished productsame flooring at the beach over at the beach house Husband replaced the old 1980’s dishwasher that sounded like a rocket launching each time we used itand then replaced the plain black fridge with a super fun vintage-inspired one, to bless menew but made to look old reminds me of my great grandma’s garage soda-pop fridge fits in so much better so then we took that (perfectly fine, newer) plain black fridge back home and decided to replace our old white garage soda fridge… which then led to a bigger update, thanks to my Juggernautupgraded our chipped, rusty porcelain sinkhe’d already replaced the faucet last year
So cheers to my Juggernaut, the one who never stops, rarely sits, and is forever fixin’.
