Mike probably doesn't have to worry about winter heat loss.

^7-11-2023. Before any work. Bent door track.


^8-3-2023. Before new windows and after drywall.



^9-1-2023. I still need the electrician to come back and reinstall the outlets and some new LED lights.


^9-1-2023. Paint is done. I'm going to power wash the floor now that the paint is done. Without paint, the walls just sheaded drywall dust and dirtied up my clean cars.

Patty, how are you going to keep your walls from getting all dirty while you power wash?

I swept the floor and then used the power washer. If stuff got on the walls I sprayed them down. The hardest thing to clean off was the grasshopper guts. Goey and dried on.

overall a busy day,
first up was the commencement/continuation of cabinet work. This started when I pulled the vent out of the cooktop.
To make access easier I removed the cabinet doors and one thing led to another.

BTW that is sandpaper not baloney.

I was home despot last night and picked up the rental belt sander to do the stairs.


no 1 son sanding.
35 years of wear and tear without any finish.

and we can't forget my lovely cabinet roll up appliance garage.
the inside view.

fighting with the stupid frame.

installed view from inside.

and the cabinet back on the wall. sans door.

yup just your normal Saturday assortment of kitchen tools.



oh and some sneakers.

What is it with "M". You collect nothing but Mercedes-Benz cars, Milwaukee tools, Mastiff dogs, and you live in MA. Your next writing could be The Meaning of Meaning of the letter "M" on My life.
