February 6th

Well…man, I really like Sunday mornings…it’s the one morning of the week that I can do what I want without any guilt…okay, I’ve talked about that before so that’s enough…slept okay last night but was up at 3 and that was a little annoying…didn’t get up til coffee o’clock, though, so that was a successful night…I did inch up toward having cocktails last night with even putting some materials in the freezer to reward myself for getting the first two doors up in the kitchen but I really think I’ve decoupled that reward system and was able to resist and stayed good for over a month now…and that gets me toward the goal of two months off at least and maybe more….I am surprised how well the doors fit when I put them up…before the work on them, they wouldn’t even close at all and stayed open about 4-5 inches unless I pushed them closed and even then they wouldn’t stay closed…but now they close to the point that there is only a half inch gap left and that is from the warp in both the cabinets and the doors and I can live with that…not sure if I’m going to work on putting the rest of the doors up today or if I’m going to put the dishes in them along with all of my spices and staples like flour, sugar, salt and cooking oils…but all of that needs to be cleaned since they do have a fine coating of dust on them and I can’t put them in my nice new cupboards without cleaning them up…there is still a lot of work in the kitchen and it should take maybe 4 weeks to complete it but then it will be clean and modern looking and all I’ll have left to do is the floor but that may be a project for next winter…I really do need to take some time to just live after finishing it up to let my beat up body heal….not much to do today…just going to read the news and have more coffee with no plans other than to take it easy for a bit….but, you know me, if there is work to be done, I can’t just sit here and not do it…more later…..
