I have been told in no uncertain scolding that I need to finish up the trim and baseboards in the kitchen. In accessing what I have left to do, I realized I need more wood.
So yesterday, I spent $225.00 on four door trim boards (hemlock), 50 feet of base shoe and three 8 foot corner moulding pieces.
It’s a beautiful Spring day outside so I’m out there prepping and staining all the new wood I bought.
It has been a while since the last post and today is a good day to break the silence. There are two momentous things happening today. Cabinet Pro will be showing up to install the Quartz Countertop we ordered for the bonus cabinets against the west wall. One may recall that these are bonus cabinets because they sent the wrong size for the island. They are 30 inches wide rather than 36 inches. So they ordered new cabinets and told us to keep the three that are wrong. We figured out they would go nicely against this wall.
Because of the radiator, we decided to go with quartz so we don’t have to worry about delamination.
We are still waiting for the Countertop guys to show up. They finally called about 20 minutes ago and said they would be here about 3:00.
And so we wait.
3:25 PM: Okay, the guys are here and the counter top is going into place. Here are some pictures.
The last event of the day is mostly inconsequential because we really don’t have a dog in the fight. But we are going to David’s Pizza to watch the championship game of the NCAA Basketball Tournament. UConn is playing Purdue and Susan and I are rooting for Purdue. If they win, we might be in the money of the bracket challenge we entered.
Note: Purdue lost so we are out of the money. But Susan won some $16.00 coming closest to predicting the combined final score.
