:thumbsup Good for you. I can't believe your heading back to the country. So cool!!!!

I bet you have a list of projects that's HUGE!!! Speaking of the garden, is the new country home anywhere near where the old one was? Just wondering if the garden season is the same.

:clap

The house is just down the road from where we used to live!! :celebrate The people who lived there left it sparkling clean, but I want to repaint the interior in *my* colors, probably starting the week we take over. I want to add an island to the kitchen and there is a small laundry room off the kitchen that I would like to add cupboards and a counter top to and match it up with the kitchen. We won't be moving in right away, we do have alot on our to do list before we actually move in. We need to replace the garage door, and we are hoping to perhaps match up the half log siding with more, to make it more uniform. The property is beautiful! and there are ponds out back a ways, down a walking trail and the lake is across the street. (I'm not living on the lake this time, but at least I won't have to pay waterfront taxes either LOL)

Well, we're in! YEAH! Fixing and decorating, I LOVE this part! Here's a before and after pic of my kitchen...just a bit of paint and wallpaper...what a difference! I'm deciding whether or not to rub some stain onto the cabinets and warm them up a little...what do you all think?

It looks better! Been wondering how you were making out, but figured you were probably busy w/the move.
