Cabinets!

Somehow I managed to convince Jason how lovely it would be to get some new cabinets, and then a new sink and countertop.  I keep thinking that I'm going to wake up and he'll have changed his mind.
 
They were surprisingly cheap, which means they are surprisingly cheap...  When I put the first coat of paint on them, the grain pulled up like I have never seen before.
Next up: Sink and countertop!

Snow Day!

It's impossible to tell exactly how much snow we got because of the drifting, but I'm guessing the 18 inches they predicted was pretty close to accurate.  We went through 4 rounds of shoveling.


Thank goodness for neighbors with snowblowers.  The guy from 2 doors down did this for the vacant house between us, and about 2/3 of the width of our sidewalk as well.  Which is fantastic, considering that last third probably took me a solid 15 minutes to do.


 My entire office building was closed, so I had time to do some of the things I always think I'm going to have a chance to do over the weekend, and then never get to.
