1. I’m convinced I have sort of lost my mind.
2. No, really.
3. I seem to misplace my head these days, and that’s just the start.
4. My keys and my phone charger–well, they’re even worse off than my head.
5. Is that an age thing? I’m only 32 for crying out loud.
6. I’d like to think that my head could stay in tact until at least 38. Or 55.
7. I came home yesterday and Matt had bought the black door.
8. Yes, he did.
9. And also pulled out our hutch we decided to sell, and brought in a new dresser for our bedroom.
10. Which meant there were three areas in disaster right when I walked in the house.
11. I maaayy not have handled myself as well as I’d like to think I should have.
12. But the black door? It’s installed.
13. I think maybe we are a few hardware pulls and some frosted glass away from being able to reveal our kitchen here on the blog.
14. Finally, right?
15. I swore we’d complete it from start to finish before starting another project–and here we are, knee deep in a three other projects.
16. Classic Matt and Shaunna move.
17. Speaking of us, how funny did I sound on the book launch video yesterday?? Hilarious.
18. I’m used to it, though, being southern and all.
19. And P.S. I think we all sound kind of funny anyway.
20. Mostly, it cracks me up when people say, “you’re so southern. I wish I had an accent.”
21. Hehehe. You do, captain obvious.
22. We all have an accent, whether we can hear it or not.
23. But if you want a little chuckle, go listen to mine.
24. I’ll be here, at the shop, and cleaning this black door, and finishing all these other projects we’ve gotten ourselves into.
25. Before I lose my keys again.

Oh lawdy! That accent is awesome!!! I MUST have that book!!! So excited for you and your sweet hubby 🙂
Congrats on your book launch! I’m from Georgia. And I think I sound hilarious too. Can’t wait to get my copy.
Blessings to all, Hope
Keys….I only know where they are because I have a key hook that they go on immediately upon arriving home!LOL
I loved, loved the video. It was so “real”, you and hubby just chatting to us from a couch, Southern drall and all. I thought the book signing looked like so much fun, gift bags, food, music and the shop looked so good. I am embarrassed to say I watched it a few times, I have been shopping in your on-line store and purchased some things; but I wanted to look at some other items you had displayed in your video. AND, being a farm, we give preserving/canning classes so tonight we are canning tomatoes and making Balsamic/Tomato/Basil jam. I saw you were serving these fab looking tomato/basil/mozzarella cheese/olive treats. Stopped the video, looked at them several times and I made them this afternoon as treats for my canning class. You are both darling and inspiring and appreciate you opening up your life and work with all of your fans. Great book!!! Paula-Windmill Farm PS_one suggestion on your shop if you could give the dimensions sometimes for the items, hard to tell if items like jars or cans are small or tall.
Considering I’m from Cottonville, NC, I don’t think your accent is all that bad! Loved the video. I’ve just found your site and I’m spending a lot of time on how to paint furniture. By the way I’m 56, it’s not a age thing, it’s a got to many apples in the air thing.
It’s because we are bombarded with information. Can’t keep everything humming along
I’m from WA state and I *think* I don’t have an accent. On vacation though people have asked “where are you from?!” I love southern accents I think they are the best! I am 29 and have 4 kids age 6 and under..and my brain is like yours. Scary isnt it?! 😉
