Why a blog



Are you out there? Or is it just me? I've decided to start this blog as a way to keep myself in check regarding our impending kitchen remodel. Can we really call it a remodel if we're tearing down the kitchen in its entirety and starting from scratch? Yes? What about if we have to tear the back of the house off to move or remove a window or three? NO? Either way - this is going to be an "adventure" and I'm hoping this kitchen project doesn't send me to inpatient care at Pine Rest. I also hope that Claire and Jackson still want to go home by the end of this. Claire already picked out the paint color: pink. We'll work on that.

I hope to post pictures along the way to keep us motivated and to serve as a reminder of how far we've come. I often forget. I can be impatient. Its been 5 1/2 years folks. Its time. So - I now enter into the world of blogging, mostly for myself but if there are friends and family that care to follow us through this transformation thats great too!

Here is a picture of a kitchen from Project Rowhouse. I hope to end this blog with a picture of my kitchen looking remarkably similar. Not in layout, but in pretty much everything else. :)




Lets just send up a quick prayer that the final blog post with photos is in my lifetime!
