sakon76The spare cabinet, from where the dishwasher went, has been put out in the garage under the workbench, where it's now being storage for extra kitchen rolls, TP, tissue paper, and the like. Wonderful Husband, meantime, has resanded the new counters with 220 grit paper and they are finally smooth to the touch. Now they just need another coat of oil or three, and then we can start putting things like the microwave and bread machine back on the counters. Who knows, someday we may have an office floor or dining room table again!
(Amusingly, in the drawer reorganization shuffle, we have one drawer that is now the tea drawer. All the different flavors we drink, all the tea balls, etc. It is, of course, the drawer directly beneath where the electric kettle will stand.)
I've been tidying up Squiddle's room. It sometimes seems like one step forward, two steps back! But slowly it's also becoming organized. Yesterday, I found the dreamcatcher a friend made for me in high school - I need to attach it to the wall over the crib. It's lightweight enough that it falling during a quake wouldn't hurt the kid. Most of the other art we're planning on putting up doesn't meet that criteria. I also need to convince Douglas that a couple houseplants in the room will be okay; greenery livens up a space, and it's one of the brighter rooms in the house so maybe I can even get plants to survive in there.
