1:30pm - pick up BBQ at a "wish it was more local" BBQ place..
2:30- arrive home and clean two bathrooms (did all the other cleaning Friday, but refuse to clean the bathrooms for company until the son and girlfriend have left)
3:30pm- first guests arrive (early) while Rich is still in the shower.

Sunday
6:30am - Rich wakes up and takes coffee to the sewing room (because we have a teenager sleeping on the couch) and watches the news.
7:30am - I wake up and finish cleaning up
9am - we leave three teenagers sleeping and head for the local hardware store to get hinges and pulls for the doors of the cabinet in my sewing room..
10am - Start making home made waffles with the new waffle iron Rich got for his birthday. Rich cooks bacon while I use the giant mixmaster, some flour, eggs and a stick of butter for the waffle batter...
11am - teenagers want to know how soon breakfast will be ready
Noon - all the waffles are finished, bacon done... let's eat!
Clean up breakfast and start putting cabinet doors up...
This is what I bought for the cabinets...
 |
| bright shiny hinges.. |
 |
| U-Bolts.. |
 |
| yep...i wanted an industrial look and these are U-Bolts |
 |
| the "drunk" guy made the doors...he did such a bad job, but they work... |
 |
| I think it looks so nice now...I just need a little bit of organization on those shelves to get it to look perfect.. |
Rich would like you all to know he did not like it when I picked out the shiny hinges and the U-Bolts.. He really wanted me to get some black regular hinges and knobs...of some kind...
He did this "Under Protest"....
