You're listening to the Beautiful Must podcast, your cozy comfort listen.

This week I'm sharing details and progress of my year-long renovation, including what we're doing and how we're hoping it will improve our daily life and our home.

Plus, for our longtime listeners, I've got a potentially surprising update on the whole

Forever Home thing. Oh, boy, the Forever Home label. Oh my gosh. Okay. So before we jump in,

I have an embarrassing story. Oh. And it's a doozy. Oh, you're going to love this. I've been saving this. I could have texted you, but I saved it. Oh, I know. I was like, I don't even know what this story is. For the real time. Okay. So, so I have had my car, my current car, since 2017.

And this is a true story.

This last week, a couple days ago, I was getting my oil changed.

And he was like, okay, turn on your headlights.

Turn on your, you know, he's like doing all the checking of the things.

And I was like fiddling with the knob, you know, the lever. Yeah. And he was like, no, that's not your headlight. And I learned and he showed me where it was. And it's a button I've never seen before on my car that I've had since 2017 and I learned that I have never turned

on my headlights before.

What?

Ever.

So, which to be fair to me, to be, well, to make it under this.

I don't hardly drive at night at all.

And like when we lived in Tennessee, I basically never did.

And then when we moved here, we got this book club.

So I do that.

It's like two streets down, though, from your house.

You could walk if it wasn't so dark and cold.

And then, like, once or twice a month, Emma will be like, will you come over to my house at night?

Or, like, you know, and we, yeah, I got a little more of a night life.
