One More Thing

Spring break is over and we’re heading full speed into summer, but first, the boys have little league, soccer, guitar, end-of-year concerts, preschool graduation, field trips and more. Most of our weeknights are fully booked and meal prep is a necessity. But, true to form, I decided now would be a great time to embark upon all those home projects we’d been putting off.

It started with the laundry room. I want to install cabinets and paint it a lighter color, as it’s currently the dark tan that matches the majority of the interior of our house. Then, I snagged my shirt on part of our laminate countertop in the kitchen. We decided while we’re looking at cabinets we could look at counters too. But, if we change cabinets and counters we’d need new paint. Needless to say, we now have new countertops scheduled for installation this week, cabinet refinishing, and I’m working on painting the whole house in phases. Ironically, the laundry room will be the last thing to get done.

Home projects have a way of starting a domino effect, and the “one more things” just keep on coming. I’m hoping to have it all accomplished (minus the laundry room that started it all of course) by the beginning of summer. You know, when all of the athletics and extracurriculars and end-of-school celebrations settle down.
