At midnight tonight, my week's vacation is officially over. I'm not sure if I could call it a vacation since I never actually took a day to relax, a symptom that I credit to my mother. (Sorry Dougy - I'm sure my wife's glad I got this from mom!!) I usually have only one motto when I'm working on project and that's "get er done!!". My wife is very happy with the upgrades, hence, I'm happy. We sure did a lot of work. The Kitchen, Hallway, Front Entrance, Living Room, and all windows were painted. I replaced all the door knobs, hinges, and locks throughout the whole house. All electrical sockets on the first floor were changed over to white rather than almond. Most of the light switches have already been changed over to my X10 Light System, check it out here at my You Tube account. The Kitchen is where most of the work (and money) was done. Countertops with an under-mount sink, recessed lighting under cabinets, knobs for cabinets, and a new pantry next to the fridge. A kitchen island is hopefully on its way. The photos from "before pics" can be found here, the after pics can be found here. Also, one more tidbit for your viewing enjoyment. I found an old video tape here from when we first moved into our house, well at least Frankie and I. What a shocking difference from how much we have changed in 6+ years. I plan to do another video tape soon, it should be exciting, right? Anyways, I'm beat, I'm going into the man room to watch my Yankees lose another one...
