☕️ Well… Maysville had me making my OWN coffee this morning. 😂

And apparently, once you make your own coffee, you’re responsible for ALL the other things too. 🤣

Staying at The Lakes RV & Cabin Resort has definitely been convenient, and I wish I had time to actually chillax, enjoy it, and do all the lake things. But that time will come later. 🌊☀️

Right now… money don’t sleep, and neither do I. 💪🏼

So let’s get some more work in! 🛠️🏡
One project, one task, one long day at a time.

And if you’re driving by and see me working… HONK! 📣😂
I could use a little inspiration (and probably a reminder that there’s a world outside this work zone).

Back to it! Let’s get it! 💰💪🏼

Tonight’s update is brought to you by sore muscles, exhaustion, and the fact that I can barely type. 😂

After working in Richlands ALL day, I headed to Maysville tonight to keep chipping away at this place.

These 24-hour house shifts I’ve been putting myself through are a whole different kind of tired. Being a medic for 24 hours is exhausting, but apparently renovating, building, cleaning, painting, hauling, planning, and running businesses after those shifts is a special kind of insanity. 😂

At this point I’m either doing entirely too much…

or I’m getting old. 🤷‍♀️😂

Either way — Maysville, I’m tackling tasks ALL weekend.

Here’s the newest update:

🤎 The bathroom is getting its transformation
🌿 Sage green is officially happening
🤎 Brown doors & trim are going in
🧱 More details are coming together
🧹 And this floor…

THIS FLOOR IS ALMOST GONE.

…just like my work-life balance. 😂😭

But little by little, this place is starting to look like the vision in my head.

I’m tired. I’m sore. I’m probably slightly delirious.

But I’m not stopping.

Maysville, we’re getting there. ❤️

Stay tuned — there’s a LOT more coming this weekend.

✨ TODAY’S SNEAK PEEK ✨

Today we created a little privacy in the bathroom because… well… there is NOTHING to see here. 😂🚽🙈 we are not filming Naked and Afraid here!😉

We added some details, started creating a tile backsplash, and gave the bathroom a little more personality. ✨🛠️

And then there were the floors…(again)

We chipped away at them. Small piece by even smaller piece!

And my soul. 😂😂

One little project at a time…

Still a LONG way to go!

🍫🏆 DID YOU DO A CHARLIE?! 🏆🍫

Because WEEWOO WEEWOO found one of our GOLDEN BAGS and now we’re wondering…

DID YOU RUN HOME LIKE CHARLIE WITH THE GOLDEN TICKET?! 😂👀

🎟️ “I FOUND IT!!! I FOUND IT!!!”

Except there’s one tiny problem…

WE STILL DON’T KNOW WHAT’S INSIDE. 🤯

The golden bag winner has the mystery prize…

…and apparently they’re keeping us in suspense. 😂

Meanwhile, the rest of Maysville is like:

👀👀👀
WHAT’S IN THE BAG?!

Remember, there were TWO GOLDEN BAGS.

🏆 One has been found.
🏆 ONE IS STILL OUT THERE.

So…

Who’s going to be our next Charlie?

And WHO is going to be the first person to finally reveal what that mysterious extra prize is?! 🎁👀

WE ARE NOT PATIENTLY WAITING. 😂
