Well. since I was supposed to go in to work Saturday at 1800 for about 6 hours, and was called saying to stand down due to problems with the rocket, my sweet little wife decided sleeping in was too good for me!
She works for the local school district at a magnet high-school, and since they're off this week for spring break, she had scheduled a contractor to come in and refinish our kitchen cabinets.
Yes, I'm quite capable of doing this type of work, but she wants it finished in a week, and it would take me a month......OR MORE!
SO....we unloaded all the drawers, and I cleaned off the small table in the breakfast nook that I use for rebuilding stuff that's too big to handle here in Radio Central.
I then pulled the range hood out of the cabinetry it was stuffed into, as it's pretty old, crummy, beat up, and having electrical issues. Plus it was an almond color that doesn't match our stainless appliances, so we'll get a new one after the cabinets are refinished.
The contractor is coming Tuesday to pull the drawers and doors and start on the fixed cabinets. They'll have one crew back at their shop redo the things they take, while the "local" crew here will do all sorts of things to make the cabinets look nice.
No idea what's wrong with the launch vehicle other than it's more than minor, and all the activities I do are on hold until the issue(s) get resolved.
Admiral Yamamoto infamously said "You cannot invade the mainland United States. There would be a man with a rifle behind every blade of grass."
And so it should be, a nation of riflemen....

Sorry. I feel for you. When we purchased our current home my wife demanded we rip out and redo the friggin kitchen. When the quote arrived I damn near fainted. Three weeks of pure hell.
ReplyDeleteOh, no!
ReplyDeleteWe will NOT do the entire kitchen at once! She likes the layout and the stuff that's in there, it's just a bit worn, and we're refreshing it.
She's thinking of maybe redoing the countertops next year, or at least have them regrouted.
The "Honey Dew" stuff just keep coming
