Day 53 April 8

I love it now how every time I walk past the kitchen or come in from the deck I just stare at the cabinets and get a tinge of excitement and anticipation. We are so close now! Today I tackled getting some of the carpet out of the way. I moved our supply table and rolled up the rest of the carpet in the dinette area. With the large rolls now out of the way it makes for more room and easier access to the table and around that area. Next I moved all the cardboard boxes out of the mudroom and got some measurements for the cabinets that will go in there. Since we’re working with our existing cabinets I’m trying to plan out the ones we’ll use and where they will be installed. I brought in a small 12” cabinet to assess the look and space we’ll have. I’m hoping in the next few days we’ll have the mudroom cabinets installed and can start to tackle the floor. I also added some insulation to a hole in one of the walls which will be behind the pantry.

 

With the incredibly warm day I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to soak in some rays. This gave me the excuse to clean our cars. With the weather and our dirt lane it’s hard to keep them clean, but they were long overdue for a washin’. After washing the outside I tackled the inside. I find it comical how much I love a clean car, but how little I actually keep it that way. I’ll just have to enjoy it while it lasts. David got home late so maybe tomorrow night I can convince him to install the mudroom cabinets :o)

First blooms!
