Hi everyone!

This week was about the parental suite and making it habitable at last. We're almost there, hoping to have it ready by the end of next week.

So I spent most of my free time painting, cleaning and preparing for the new wooden floor which we'll start laying tomorrow.

So of course, I'm tired but still feeling motivated and dedicated to meeting that goal ASAP.

Surprisingly enough, I managed to squeeze in some writing between reno and work, so the week was super good. It's nice to feel energetic and focused again.

How about you? What makes you feel extra-motivated and forget exhaustion? What have you been dedicated too lately? Let me know in the comments.
