home improvements

Over Memorial weekend, Jeff and I added shelved in the laundry room. Some of the big boxes will be full of school supplies. I but them after school has begun and they are greatly discounted. One thing led to another since as I cleaned out where the supplies were, I found duplicate purchases of kitchen lunch bags, foil, etc. I guess we would not find them, so we assumed that there were none and bought more.
This then led to the discovery of more thing that I no longer use so the stack of donations is growing.


I have decided to finally repaint/paint the woodwork in the house. When we had wood floors added many years ago, the quarter round they added was primed white, but not painted white. Over time, the trim work has chipped and yellowed, so off I go. The hardest is taping off all the area, and the SMELL of the oil based w/ primer paint and the color~~white. It is actually more glossy than the paint now showing, maybe due to aging, but I am going to try to NOT have to do all 18 doors too.

and after. It is not perfect, but it is much better.
