aamusedinatxWhew...3.5 hours, but we're finished and the kitchen is looking pretty damn good! There's a bit more cleanup I need to do, and the pantry and storage doors were left 'blank' (I have another crafty thing for them, which I'll get to tomorrow). I took before photos. Later, after everything's dry I'll take some in between photos and then tomorrow I'll take the FINAL photos :)
Thank goodness for Dr S and his help!! It made the kitchen go by much faster than it would have all on my lonesome. I managed to barricade the dork dog in my bedroom. The baby-gate worked fine but because she could still see me she just about pitched a fit and fell in it. Once I shut her up in my bedroom with her food, water, and Sammy, the Buddha-kitty, she calmed down and probably napped for a good portion of it. We both took her out for a walk while the first coat and cut-in painting dried. She got to play with us and her kong, stuffed with treats, while we humans sat having a few chips and a soda. She was NOT happy we had to shut her up again while we finished the kitchen. She also didn't particularly like that I picked her up and carried her through the kitchen rather than let her walk. Squirmy doggie!
Now, I'm going to stagger into the shower, clean up, rest a little bit and then wander up to Dr S's house about 6:30. I promised him and me both dinner out tonight. Probably a good idea since I won't be cooking until tomorrow earliest.
Thanks for the cheers AND the jeers :) It made my Saturday!
