Heading in the Right Direction!

Getting close to done... 
Getting close to being excited!
Just a lil' more wallpaper and finish moldings
but here's a glimpse of the progress to 
Whet your appetites.

Coffee's brewing, almost time for some Joe!

Some Jewels for the Wall Cabinets

 

 

Some Jewels for the Island and Buffet Cabinets 

 

Angles, angles and more angles!

Wallpaper begins! 

  

So much more to do but 

it's finally looking like a 

kitchen and eating area! 


Cushions for benches,
Walnut Dining Double Pedestal Table,
Ghost Chairs (oh so pretty),
and the pieces de resistance...
Wall Sconces and Chandeliers!


Oh, and the Dining Room transformation
to follow...
Will I ever be finished???

Another Day,

Another year.

What's that they say?

Good fences make good neighbors?

Well, out back, new neighbors moved in about 9 months ago.  Never have met them.  Apparently male neighbor stopped by and said something to my son about the fence and how he wanted to fix it was it okay?  My son said yeah, knowing that we were going to be putting up a new one AFTER the kitchen and deck are done, that was the 3rd project...

Well, this smacked a$$ decided to butcher my Rose of Sharons along my side of the fence and leave anywhere from 3 inches to 16 inches of trunk in the ground.  Mind you these plants were behind our shed (3 years old) but they were mature and very tall and blocked our view of his house, which is in poor condition.

The fence is in very sad shape and needs replacement but this smacked a$$ took it upon himself to come onto my property and cut down my mature plants without asking.

I'm so pissed I feel like contacting a Real Estate Lawyer and suing the crap outta this smack!  Ugh, I guess the crappy fence made a crappy neighbor... assuming we'll not be friends either!

@#$!$#@!#@%!$#@$$#!@@%$#@$%@%$#@$#@&#^%*(*&)(*)&^%$%#@&*%(O)*&^%$#@

It's Getting There...

New eating area getting walls, 

Counters and backsplash are on their way to finish...

Almost done, invites to come!

I can smell a kitchen in the offing! YAY!

It's really getting harder...

to get up and go to a job I hate.

Actually, it's not the job so much as being told just about everything I am doing is wrong!

Got reamed again yesterday.

I have never felt like a failure as much as I do since taking this role.  I do believe my boss is pushing me to leave so I guess I will begin to do a job that I truly, truly hate to do... look for a new job!

Ugh, time to get ready and head into the office!  I tell ya, if I'm gonna get reamed, I'd at least like to have an orgasm for putting up with it!

Grrrrrrrrrrr...
