This Weekend

Working on the house this weekend will be interspersed with trips (3 round trips) to Durham, NC. It is prom weekend for C, so she needs a car for hair and nail appointments. That is the Friday trip. Saturday afternoon around 3PM we will meet with her and friends at the Duke gardens for pictures, and then Sunday evening we will need to retrieve our car from C. Figure about 2.5 hours round trip (actual travel time is a bit less than 2 hours. C will look beautiful in her dress (as nearly all the Prom young men and women do).

It is our last Prom. Our little family is nearly all grown up, sniff, sniff.

Sorry it has been a month

But K and I have been working on a remodel job for the laundry room. I built a cabinet on one end that matches our kitchen cabinets in style/look, we will be installing a new, stacking front loading W/D combination, which meant relocating water/drain pipes, rewiring some outlets, building a wet wall, laying tile, installing trim, painting, installing the new dryer vent in the roof. All that mixed in with a normal dose of my travel schedule.

It will be 95% completed this Sunday, before I leave for Upstate NY for the week. The last thing I will be building is a cabinet over the new W/D combo that will hide the dryer vent pipe and have a short bar for hanging clothes fresh from the dryer. But that will occur another day. One cannot have too much storage, even though we have 2x what was here when we bought the house. Pictures will be posted next week.

Next up is a master bathroom redo (already started).
