Weekends are my big home improvement days, and I was determined to finish my cupboards. so after a nice breakfast at Norma's, I coerced Rob into going to Lowe's with me to buy shelf brackets and the wood for one last shelf, painted ceramic knobs for the doors, and some other stuff for my mosaics--like some chocolate brown grout and a ceramic tile cutter.
As usual, what should have been a thirty-minute job (installing brackets and putting up the shelves) took hours due to my incompetence, but it's done now. My shelves are bee-u-tiful. I still have one more to install and some hooks, too, but that's for another day. At least one of the cupboards is completely done and I can move everything into it. Arturo and his workers showed up and started working on my porch roof again. Surprise surprise, they found a bunch more rotten wood. Another $200 when all is said and done. Kind of makes me wonder what shape the rest of the roof is in.
Neither of us wanted to cook, so we went out to eat again. Rob got a chocolate milkshake for dinner. I had a Jumbo Jack and fries. I'm not sure which of us was more nutritionally irresponsible. But at least we got some exercise walking to The Jack and then to Carnival to buy stuff for breakfast tomorrow.
This evening I grouted my mosaic picture frame (for the last time, I hope) and tried out the new tile cutter. It's slick! Once I figure out a design, I think I'm ready to work on my table.
Hope your weekend is going well,
Kara
