I have been tardy with updates but there has been quite of bit of progress. We went to Timbertown on the weekend and they let us return 5 boxes of unused flooring and then we also picked out 150 feet of baseboard. The baseboard is a nice 5/8″ thick and about 4″ tall […]

The granite installers showed up right on time got the granite all installed in about 3 hours total time. Because the kitchen is fairly small they had quite a difficult time getting the two pieces in properly, they ended up having to move the stove out of the way after the one piece was […]

For the upper cabinets we’re using the one listed as “B” in […]

My local safeway had a video rental machine installed a few weeks ago and I tried it out for the first time. New release dvd rentals for $1.49. It was super easy and convenient and they had quite a decent selection if you are looking for newer movies.
