Lost is Found

The countdown begins...

Actually it began about a month ago, at least for me - but in three days I'm going to be indulging in the season 4 premiere of Lost in glorious HD heaven, biting my fingernails and pulling my knees up to my chest while underneath a blanket.

And then 8 weeks from then I'll be crying, since that's all folks. At least for now.

Fingers crossed that the strike will be over soon and we can get all our questions answered.

My type of man

Does anyone know?

Being part German I am ashamed to admit that I am unaware of when Fausnaught Day is this year.

I do know, however, that it started when people needed to use up all the baking ingredients around the house prior to Lent. Does this mean that it is always the day before Lent? Or the day Lent starts?

Does anyone know?!

First step

Here's what we're dealing with here:













The best part is the current jaundice color scheme:

Just makes you kindawanna puke, huh?

First, I took care of removing the shelves/drawers/hardware while Ben carried them down to the basement to be sanded and puttied and sanded again:

And now for several views of the kitchen with random poses brought you by BAC

I had a bit of a tiff with the wallpaper, and now I'm sanding the remains

And a couple shots of the kitchen with the empty cabinets -
making us ready for more sanding and then painting!

Home renovations for the new year!

For the last week, Ben and I have been removing parts of our kitchen to repair, remodel and refurnish.

I'm currently in the process of taking pictures of the progress. I will post as we renovate.

It's quite exciting being able to make little to huge modifications in your own home.

Happy New Year!
