Whatcha doing today?

It was 1 big rain storm at 3 am .Now it is really windy out .Pond got a nice water change

I just went out and looked at my pond. Thin layer of ice over most of it, 1/4-1/2 inch. I find I’m eager for spring so I can get a garden going! And see my fish again. Temps have been in the 40-60 range all week, but freezing at night, so I hope the frog makes it, I just put it out. And my bog iris is taking off in the aquarium inside, I’d guess the tallest is about 2’ tall.
I’m ready for spring! Flowers and plants and starting on landscaping.

My flower bulbs are sprouting .Buds are sprouting on my trees .Way to soon for this and 1 more thing to worry about

Hung cabinets today, checked the ponds, some have ice, the big ones have a water layer sitting on top of the ice layer.

My bread box is done, aside from another layer of poly urathane for shine on some parts. The red accents don’t stand out much, but I like it.

 

[addy1]

That turned out very nice!

Beautiful @JamieB

Thank you ladies! It’s amazing what a little bit of effort can do. Refinishing is so much better than spending 3x more on something new for less quality mass produced stuff. It’s easy, it’s better, and it looks better too.

I went to habitat for humanity yesterday and guess what I bought .Upper kitchen cabinets in oak and maple

for 5 dollars a piece and in great shape ,just a little touch up needed ,They are going into my laundry room .They are cabinets that would have had a cabinet off them but I will use that open spot for display and I think i will make doors that match my kitchen .Better than 36 dollars for new ones .They also came with the shelves and shelf pins .win win

All this "cabinets" talk makes me want to redo my kitchen! It needs it, but I rather spend my money outdoor first...crazy huh?

Don't feel like working today..it's Friday!

We took the day off from Baltimore. Feet up drinking coffee, watching the tube

All I did in the kitchen was move the cabinets over to make more room for the fridge and these cabinets were such a steal that my laundry room will get them .2 -36 inch cabinets with shelves in the middle 4 feet long ..They had cabinets from lowes and home depot that had been donated by the stores after they redo their model kitchens in the stores .But these are solid so at 5 dollars each how could I pass that deal up .It was a tight squeeze for my fridge before and now that 5 inch's gave the fridge more room .My laundry room is 10 feet long by 12 feet feet wide and i figure the wall cabinets above the washer and dryer would give me more storage that is hidden .It is my sewing room and my computer room also .

Bonus today got all hubbies lab work back and all 17 tests normal all that was wrong was his thyroid test was up .HDL and LDL all normal .I printed it out to show hubby what he does not know will not harm him .I add veggies hidden in almost all his foods I cook for him .Like today stuffed peppers have spinach ,yellow squash ,zucchini and broccoli and cauliflower and carrots in them .What he never knows will never hurt him but sure been helping his test results .Even the doctor has been amazed at his health since his hear attack .They even checked his heart and no clogged arteries at all .The doctor was amazed .

Hubby lost 75 lbs since we married, all due to my cooking .........and not in a bad way.............

He used to eat out a lot with the previous wife.
