    It all started with "lets paint the kitchen".

    So yeah, lets paint the kitchen (which was over due for sure) then while we was finishing that up lets redo the windows with shutters,,,, several hundred dollars and a full week of my life to custom fit those and nearing completion "can we re-tile the floor ? " ~ sure, why not (butt load of time/money right there in)
    then add in a dish washer, replace all the trim with new,,,, yeah happy wife ~ happy life
    Son in law coming over tomorrow morning to help get fridge back into place (its like dragging a large dead deer out of the woods). Hopefully get all the trim back on this week end and some other details done. Not exspecting to be all done by Monday but closer.
    So for those folks asking me about our parts we make thanks for your patience in waiting. The Mrs. is working me like a 20 year old pool boy (with benefits )
    Sure looking forward to our next ride at the Brimstone despite the long drive !
    In all fairness the Mrs. has certainly been doing her part with grouting, touch up paint, wood finishing, parts running and what ever to make it happen,,,

    Looks good. I have done a variety of work in my time. Hot stuff, nasty stuff, million dollar projects... But honeydoos are by far the most taxing across the board. Fine job John...

    Looks, great!

    The only thing better than a nice kitchen, is a nice garage.

    Gotta keep them happy John. And it doesn't hurt to sit back and say, "I did that" with a smile on your face. Looks great!

    NICE kitchen chopsaw !

    That IS a very nice accent.
    The Mrs. says we are done. I let her shoot the last trim nail and she proceeded to putty fill in all the Brad nail holes.
    She is happy !
    Now I can work on my things to do list

    Act fast, you've done your deed and now she's in a weakened state. Go buy something complete useless that you've always wanted. The armour doesn't shed very often with that species;-)
