Well…up early today and feel a little worn out…probably from only eating one meal yesterday since I worked on the kitchen until after one and that is too late to make lunch….so I just had an orange and called it good…and that pattern is going to happen again today since I need to finish up the sanding and filling on the trim…not looking forward to moving the stove out and discovering what is under it and cleaning that up before I work on the baseboard behind it…..and my right heel has developed it’s first cracks of the winter and that is going to make it pretty painful to stand on it all morning but it has to be done…I did get quite a bit of work done on the kitchen yesterday and I am edging toward just ending the work after today since I could keep working on it forever if I don’t….and this place is 82 years old and will never be perfect without spending thousands and thousands of dollars that I am just not going to spend…and I am not going to do that much work….since I started, my goal was to just make this place liveable and clean and I can accomplish that without making it perfect….and I can always come back to do the detail work after I get the major stuff done….not sure why I feel depressed this morning but I think it just one of those cycles that happens every couple of months and part of it is all of the work I’ve done on the kitchen and I feel like I’m no closer to finishing it than I was a month ago….I mean two months to do just one room? And I’m still a good two weeks away from painting the walls and ceiling but that will go pretty fast once I get to that point…and I still need to buy a range hood and hang it but that has to wait until the painting is done….so, you can see how this could contribute to being a little depressed…I think anyone would be….not much to do today…just the normal routine but I am not going to stop on the kitchen until I’m done with the prep in there…so it looks like a 5 hour day today and will probably use up the new tub of patching material before I’m done….man, I’m tired…more later….<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
