01/10: Almost done the summer "to do" list
Category: General
Posted by: The Agnew Family
When we get home in the spring I create a "to do" of the things I would like to accomplish over the summer. As the summer passes it shrinks and grows until hopefully it is empty. I just have a couple of items left on the list and they are both 90% done so I think I'll leave with an empty list ..... unfortunately I've already started next years list.
One of the items on this year's list was to fix up the "basement kitchen". It's really a work area where paint and other stuff is stored and the dirty clean up happens (i.e. washing out paint brushes, etc.). The cupboards were painted blue and green, the counter top was painted grey, cupboard doors on the right side of the room were painted white and had painted door frames. Turned out the doors weren't even square and the cupboard at the end of the counter stuck out into the room making for a very narrow entrance. It took a lot more work than we expected but it looks great now .... at least I think so.
Last fall I had purchased material to make a quilt while I was in Texas last winter. Didn't happen. Finally I got my butt in gear and the quilt top is almost done ... one border to go. When I told Ed I'm going to quilt it over the winter he just laughed. That might be enough incentive to get it done.
