Several months ago my husband made the choice to leave his job where he had worked for over 20 years.
It wasn't an easy decision, but one that changed everything.
I won't lie. It was a bit scary at first. However we soon came to realize it was the best decision not only for him, but also for our family.
After working the same job for that long you can get burned out and it just wasn't rewarding anymore. What he really wanted to do was start his own business.
And that's just what we did!
We thought long and hard about how we could team up together and it just seemed natural.
Thompson Design + Build was born.
It has been a few months now and we have several projects completed and underway.
We have done everything from small scale projects to whole house remodels.
Our goal is to flip houses, and while we have been searching for one to buy, we just haven't found the right one quite yet.
Our website launched a few weeks ago, {although it still needs some tweaking}
and our local paper did a great write up on us.
Initially we thought this could be a two man job, but since we have gotten busier we have hired one employee, and will be adding to our team shortly.
I want to encourage anyone reading this that is feeling stuck in your current job. If you aren't feeling like you are living life to the fullest or really want to take the leap and do something you really love, do some research, it might just be for you.
There was a lot of work that went into starting this business. Licensing, Bonding, Insurance, Business Licenses, Lawyers, Book keepers, Payroll, etc. But we are learning fast and it has been an amazing journey so far.
We are currently booked through the end of the year but are accepting new jobs for 2019. If you live in our area {take a look at our website} and are looking into sprucing up your space, big or small, please fill out the contact form on our website.
I will be sharing our projects along the way right here with some great before and after photos.
I still plan to blog as usual, because being able to share things with all of you is truly what makes me happy.
If you have been following along on our One Room Challenge, now you know why it is taking longer than expected. Juggling 4+ jobs, raising a family, publishing a blog, and adding in our own home renovations is a juggling act as you can imagine. Thank you for being patient with me as I learn how to find that balance.
You are all truly the best,
xoxo
