Operation Beautiful Kitchen

First of all HELLO Ladies & Gents!

I am back from the long lost abyss of Radiography school! I am not done yet still one year left to go but it’s slowing down a little bit!  I figure that I might as well wind down school (& DEPLOYMENT!) with a major project!

What have I decided to take on you ask?

Well if you read the title you already know!

THE KITCHEN!

Are you ready to see the most awful ugly 80’s throw back kitchen in the world?

Are you sure?….

Ok here it comes…brace yourselves folks….

I dont think you can handle it…shield your children’s eyes!

*SCREAMS*

Alright alright…enough of that ahem….

So here’s the nitty gritty down and dirty details…

Ugly light fixtures…

Down right horrendous cabinets….

Nasty floor (yes that is clean!)

& falling apart counter tops….

Okay so now that you’ve seen the ugliness in all its glory…

Lets discuss how we’re going to turn this ugly duckling of a kitchen into a beautiful swan shall we?

Budget: $500

To Do:

  • Paint cabinets and add crown moulding, trim to doors & hardware
  • Replace floor
  • Paint treatment to counter tops
  • New light fixtures
  • Backslash
  • Paint walls, ceiling and trim
  • New range hood

The Final Result (a mock up):

So over the next few days we’ll be discussing what is going to take place how much it will cost yadda yadda..

Join me won’t you?

Forgive Me Father for I have Sinned

because I am breaking one of the 10 Commandments by coveting this baby.....



ever since I got to use my friend Heather's last September when I took her maternity pictures, I've been praying every night that one shows up at my door magically, I've even been on my best behavior and been doing my best in school hoping that being a good girl would help me reap a reward....

I digress I know I will get one someday but SOMEDAY needs to HURRY UP!

Sooo many ideas floating around in my little head, it's very exciting!

OH and PS: I'm not dead just very very VERY busy with school....

Killer

That is the only way I can describe this week!

I had 3 tests this week (one Wednesday & two Thursday/today) and it was just a nerve wracking week. I'm so glad to be through with it! I only have class tomorrow for about 2 hours.

But the greatest thing about getting through this week is not that I'm done with the tests (there are always more tests) but it's that I get to go visit my husband for the whole weekend! I'm so very excited! I cannot wait! I'm leaving right after class lets out on Friday so I should be there by early Friday afternoon!

I do not think I can contain my excitement! I might not sleep very well tonight! Okay that's a lie I'm dead on my feet! Like I said I'm lucky this week didn't kill me!

Even better yet I don't even have to worry about school this weekend because I got ahead and completed all of my assignments that are due for online work on Tuesday night. So that is a big relief that I will have nothing to do but spend time with my husband.......*sigh*

The perfect end to the most hellish week ever!

Have a fabulous weekend everyone!
