Tackle It Tuesday. (Cabinet)+Heads or Tails (Wonder)



As I posted in pass about us doing our kitchen cabinets well we got the top ones done. When I inherited this house when my mom died it had dark cabinet and the kitchen reminded me of being in a cave.



We priced out new cabinets and even new doors ouch for our pocket book. So Murphy and I start to think maybe we could make our own. We talk to our brother in-law Heinz and he told us to use a fine tooth saw blade for the skill saw.
So we went to Home depot and bought a piece of oak plywood for $50.00 and some stain for $10.00 we have less then $80 in it.
Sure they’re some minor mistakes that when we get around doing the base cabinets we now know what we did wrong.



We want to change the stove hood.

Here is a close up.






Anther project I start and it going to take a long time to get this one done.
I don’t recall every saying that I’ve been searching my family history and now I decided to print off my blog.
I bought two binders and plastic sheet things to put the pages in. Some day I’ll be giving these two my boys. Not sure when maybe when I’m pushing 90 or so.
My boys wouldn’t appreciative it now about were there family came from or stories.
So far I got 46 pages printed off and I’ve posted over a thousand times
I wonder what people will learn about blogs in the feature about our past.
Page 23 line 8 it goes as “about my blog to my brother in law Earl. Not telling my brother in law my user name he would be trying” I know it not a complete sentence but that’s ok.

I'm sure your kitchen will be a much brighter place when you're done!

Printing your blog is a GREAT idea! I know mine holds a lot of what's been going on in my life since I started it.

Dial-up? Ouch.
