- - - - - Ooops Alert - - - - -
I thought that I had posted this Tuesday afternoon, but I guess my brain slipped a gear.
I'll put in an update of what's happened over the last two days, time permitting.
Gotta run now - the carpet guys are here and laying the new carpet, so I have to stay out of the way.
- - - - - Painting - - - - -
Did a test patch of the gloss white to see if it matches the kitchen cabinets. It doesn't. I was hoping that we'd be able to get away with a good clean, but against the new paint, the cabinets look dingy.
Durn...
So I dismounted all the doors, all fourteen of them, removed and baggied all the hardware, pulled out all the drawers (only six of those), and removed the drawer pulls.
Tried using a brush to paint one of the doors. Looks crappy. Tried a cabinet frame. Still looks crappy. Sigh. Dan will be over this afternoon, after he gets off work. I'll set it up so that all this crap can be sprayed, so it'll look good.
All that remains to be painted is the stuff I already mentioned, the rest of the kitchen, and the upstairs bath, both in gloss, plus the master bedroom. Then, after the carpet guys come, it'll just be touch-up, cleanup, put-it-all-back-together, and bail out of here on Monday AM.
- - - - - Current American Heroes - - - - -
Remember Pat Tillman? NFL player, a starting free safety for the Arizona Cardinals? Quit football to join the Army? Remember him?
He's the quiet hero. Doesn't give interviews. Just goes out and does it. Writer Paul Beston tried to get a little detail HERE.
Sounds: Just the guys installing carpet
Attitude: Frazzled - I hate doing this stuff!
Feedback?
