Now I may do laundry more often ...

Remember what the laundry room looked like before?

Well, look at it now!



This configuration makes much more sense! The washing machine still seems to be leaking though, so we'll probably hunt down a new one soon (after I go cross-eyed reading reviews, of course).

Kitchen Progress

The crown moulding went up in the kitchen today. We will paint it the same color as the walls and ceiling.

Nursery Progress

The chair rail and wainscoting went up today and look great!

Home Improvement

Our good friend S has agreed to take on several home improvement projects that are sure to make our lives easier.

Put up the chair rail and faux wainscoting in the nursery.


Reconfigure our laundry room so the washer and dryer are next to each other, rather than on opposite sides of the room.

Build a shelving unit for our cable box with doors to hide all the components.

Put up crown molding in our kitchen to hide the gaps between the wall and the ceiling.


If he's feeling really ambitious, eventually he may attempt to build out our desperately needed home office.  (Please don't judge me!)
