More on the paint job!

Does anyone else find that when you start a project or chore, especially one involving cleaning, you just can't stop.  What you've cleaned makes everything else look dingy, and that's what I face.  

The hardware I cleaned in TSP turned out to be beautiful, so I began taking hardware off some of the other cabinets.  That means the cabinet doors have to sit on the kitchen floor propped up against something while the hinges and pulls are being soaked and cleaned.  This is going to take me a while - over a period of days!  I tried to take "before" and "after" photographs,  but just can't deal with the phone.  I have no clue how it works, so I guess I will just have to be satisfied to be able to make and receive a phone call, although I often have trouble with that.  I'll get Jeannie to photograph the work when she gets here this evening.

Yesterday I ordered groceries to be delivered this morning.  I often make the mistake of not completing every last screen to confirm my order.  This is so aggravating, but I was able to place the order which will be delivered between 1:30 and 2pm this afternoon.  I sure hope I haven't sent the order twice, especially since I am to get two 1-gallon bottles of vinegar for weed/grass killing!  I certainly don't need 4 bottles!

If I sit much longer I won't be able to get up, so I'd better close up the computer for now.  Have a great day!

  1. Why don't you just get an inexpensive point and shoot camera and forget about using the camera built into the phone?

    1. I never did use my camera phone very often, but sometimes that is all you have nearby.

  2. And that's why I never start a cleaning project. Lol. I'm sure it's really going to look fantastic, just don't try to push yourself too hard.

    1. Jeannie is doing the biggest part of the work, but I'm doing my part as well. Also, today I began packing things out of a big white cabinet (formerly held a TV behind the louvred doors, plus two big drawers. I don't know where I will put all the stuff from it when I move, and I haven't come across much that I want to part with. I probably have fewer "things" than most people, but mine are all little sentimental things I hold on to.

  3. I don't start projects because like Jim and Sandie then I have to finish them :-(

    Glad you are getting so much done and that Jeannie is going to help with the painting.

    Off topic I took Nico to the vet and you came to mind when the Vet said to their owner of two huge dogs "I can see that you put a lot of thought in naming your dogs"...One was named Rocky Jr. and the other Rocky III...jajajajajaja!
