We’ve spent another weekend doing Home Improvement. But it feels great to be getting done some of the things we’ve been saying we need to do. We put up the crown molding in the living room. So that room is finally complete. We can check it off our HI to-do list.

We bought the paint, hinges and doorknobs to do the kitchen cabinets. Of course we couldn’t find any cheap white knobs so we bought wooden ones. Yep, I have to paint 20 little knobs. But oh well. We are repainting the cabinets in white. The next step will be to replace the countertops, and peel the wallpaper so we can paint the walls. Then we’ll be done with the kitchen and can move onto the front bathroom.

We were talking about it yesterday and my hubby said, by the time we finish all home improvement, we’ll end up in a situation where we’ll move. Then we’ll have to start all over in a new house. Well, you know…that’s part of owning a home. But at least our house will be prettier when we decide to sell it.

My parents are finally going back home from their unexpected extended stay in Florida. Dad is doing great. His pacemaker is working overtime though. The doctors said that usually you have to change the battery around 10-12 years. Dad’s will most likely have to be changes around 8 years because it is working so hard. Apparently he really needed that pacemaker. His dizziness is much better. He saw an audiologist who did some things to his ears. He’s not sure what, but he said whatever they did worked, because he hasn’t been getting dizzy. I’m so glad he’s doing better. So they are coming up Wednesday and will stay with us for 2 days before heading on to Texas.
