Afternoon all&#33; Busy morning here finishing up a few tax returns and then I put the new flatter texture on the ceiling. It looks great&#33; On Saturday I&#39;ll do the last coat and I can call it done&#33; Can&#39;t wait so I can get some rest. I&#39;ll be headed out tomorrow to Lowe&#39;s for the paint and some new lighting, then on to looking for someone to refinish my cabinets and install new countertops. Not sure about new appliances yet except I will definately be getting a microwave under the cabinets so I can have more counterspace free. <br /><br />Carmen glad you checked in, I was starting to worry about you.
