It’s been a month of house renovation projects—a new tile entryway, wooden stairs going up to the main floor, a new living room window, newly painted kitchen walls and ceiling, and the interior of the kitchen cabinets painted.
I don’t know which new item I’m enjoying the most. I love the interior of my kitchen cabinets. It is so much fun to open them—oh, wow. Three Tuscany colors are involved in an alternating color order from cabinet to cabinet.
The window has needed replacing for at least several years. The section that opened no longer closed tightly nor anything resembling tight. We certainly did not have to worry about fresh air exchange in the house. For the past two years, L taped it shut outside. However, the duck tape solution was no longer working. The week after the window was installed the temperature dropped to 20 below. Goodness, we felt warm and cozy in our living room.
As for the wooden stairs—-I had become so tired of vacuuming the carpet with a hand vacuum. Now, its once over lightly with the regular vacuum brush attachment. Also, I really enjoy the sound of going up and down the stairs. I grew up with wooden stairs. To top it off, the tile in the entryway is a nice change.
I love the new changes but it’s nice to be back to regular life.
