Well hello there! How was your weekend? I figured I’d better stop by here and give you an update as to how things went yesterday with the kitchen cabinets as well as how the rest of the weekend has gone. First, WOW, is it just me or did this weekend just completely fly by? It honestly does not seem possible that it’s Sunday evening already!
Anyway, back to the cabinets, sorry, my train of thought just isn’t what it should be some days! Amazingly, without doing ANY measuring before hand, the cabinets that were given to us fit PERFECTLY on the wall that we put them on. I questioned the method they decided to use to hang them because I knew that it would damage the wall and cause more work for me after they were up, but the guys wouldn’t listen to me. They used a 2 inch strip of board to use as a guide for the bottom of the cabinets and they put it up with screws, and sure enough, I now have several holes in the wall that I have to patch from where they first put the screws in, then realized they missed the studs and put a second set in that did hit studs. Other than that, the cabinets look FANTASTIC and I can’t wait until I get the time to get them painted!
My sister, of course, just HAD to go into town while she was here, and wouldn’t take no for an answer when I said that I didn’t want to go. Just because she has to run into town and pick up things does NOT mean she needs me to come along and hold her hand! I swear she’s just not happy sitting still, every time she comes down here she has to go to some store or another. It’s not like she never comes down here, she’s in this area at least once a week. But since our niece is due in a little bit more than a month she wanted to go to a new baby boutique that she had heard about. Yes, I did enjoy myself, but I’d much rather have been able to stay here and help the guys with the cabinets and keep an eye on the kids and the dogs!
