I finally finished putting up all the holiday decorations around the house this week Woo hoo! One more item checked off the to-do list! I feel like I’m behind but I think that is just the weight of knowing Christmas is next week and I still have work, shopping, wrapping and cleaning to do this …
It’s been a crazy week here at the Kraus house. My employer suggested we go back to working from home (if you follow my IG stories you know why I’m not a good work from home person). I’m finishing up the family room refresh at my sister in laws house (WOW-the transformation is nothing short …
