Darbys empty nest
Darby is so sad after saying goodbye to the last of her girls to leave after being home for Christmas. Darby was dreading being at home alone and was feeling very sad. The house was so quiet just made her feel lost & very sad. She's not sure how she can get past this. Darby decides to look at some of her the people she follows on YouTube . Some have done a lot of renovations themselves others just waffled on about their beautiful homes. Darby decides to make a start on removing her ancient kitchen cupboards down as she moved in over 5 years ago & hasn't done any of the decorating or renovation that she intended to do. I'm not going to say anything else except its well worth reading. It's a great story with a few twists.
