I am so excited I can hardly stand it. I posted a while back about the problems we were having with the loan and everything. Finally it has all been solved. We have a second garage in the back yard that was being built as an apartment before we bought the house. When we moved in, it just became storage.


Right now as I type this, my DH is out there with a contractor building a wall so that the electrician can come tomorrow, then the plumber on Wednesday. icon_lol.gificon_lol.gificon_lol.gif I am absolutely dying with excitement right now!

I just want to give a big thanks to all of you who gave me encouragement when I was down! Also, a huge thanks to whoever posted the link to auctionzip.com. We found an auction and got most of the stuff I needed for the shop at great prices! Some of my stainless steel tables are brand new. I will try to post some pics of the progress soon.

I'm eating a spoon of peanut butter cream frosting, and doing a happy dance! icon_biggrin.gif

Big congratulations!! I hope the rest of the construction gets done quickly so you can get in there and start spreading the icing instead of eating it!!

No kidding... I eat way too much icing! It's the cure for a long stressul day. When the kids go to bed, I grab a spoonful of icicing and sit on the couch. icon_lol.gif

You all have been so kind. I absolutely love making cakes. It is my passion. I know that I would not be this far along in the process without CC!

Ok.. I promise pictures tomorrow. We just made it back from yet another trip to Home Depot. Boy those trips get expensive! I get all excited over goofy little stuff, like the new door knobs I got, or the curvy track lighting. Thanks again to all of you for the encouragement!
