Welcome to another month of 30 Minutes in the Life!
I admit, I’m cheating a little with my 30 Minutes this month. These minutes aren’t continuous but they represent a space and a time I want to be able to look back on. What better way to do that than to document the little moments.
Despite the lockdown, we recently heard that we had our planning permission approved. We can’t wait to get started turning our home into something to be proud of! We love this place, for the bones and the feels, for the memories already created, the safety and security it offers after turbulent times, and the potential, but it’s not exactly picture perfect right now!
Our kitchen, as it currently stands, is a corridor from the bedrooms at the front of the house to the lounge at the back and the “front door” (which is actually a garage door) at the side. It is a space we use because we have to, not because we want to, and very rarely for any length of time. I love to cook and to bake, but these surroundings are not inspiring!
When this space undergoes it’s transformation it’ll become the dining room and heart of the home, so I wanted to take a moment to unashamedly appreciate it for what it is now. A mishmash ugly mess with nowhere near enough storage!
Someone managed to accidentally order 45 rolls of toilet paper. That “someone” would be me.

Changing spaces is always fun and I love doing it. We just redid our kitchen and it is messy and a lot of work but I love the end result. I have enjoyed every moment of the change. You will love it in the end. I love the image of your little guy with the laptop. There is so much color in the image.
It has such a cozy feel about it and I’d kill for that light! I can’t wait to see what you do with this space though!!!
WoW! Your presented so well what you wanted to say! i know the feeling, enjoy and document the progress!!!
Remodeling our kitchen is on our list but a long ways down. What a fun space you have! I love your photos…and 45 rolls of toilet paper! LOL Sounds like something I could have done!
I love that you captured the “reality” of life. You will cherish these photos as your home slowly changes. Wonderful month! And I love the pops of red!
