Project Laundry Room

Now that the garage is done, I now have some time to work on some smaller projects.  My lovely wife has asked that I look into installing some cabinets in the laundry room above the washer and dryer.  Currently theres just a wire shelf above the laundry machines… The picture is poor but its hard…

The garage is done

After 5 months of work – the garage is at a point where Im calling it done.  There are certainly little things here or there that need finishing – but from a usability perspective we’re back to having a garage.  Here are some pictures that show the work from various angles… Here you can see…

The garage – lots of updates

Well – I’ve been noticeably gone from here for awhile.  I dont even want to look and see when the last post was.  At any rate, I have some garage progress to report.  Namely, I’m done will all of the built in cabinets with the exception of the doors and drawers!  The last area I…

The walls are almost done!

After much work on behalf of both my wife and I I have the last set of walls painted and paneled… Its hard to see here since I moved a bunch of wood around again but the wall is totally paneled and above it and where my work bench will be (right side) is painted….

July – Seafood

Somewhat surprising to most people is that Im not a huge steak guy.  Why is this relevant?  It means that most of the meat I eat is pork and chicken.  And while I love chicken and pork, I’m always looking for more alternatives.  Enter seafood and the massive variety of protein that falls into that…

Where did June go?

So here we are.  Im sure you’ve noticed, but there wasn’t a single update post from June.  Im not sure what to say besides that I just literally didn’t have the time.  Im in the middle of changing roles at my job and that’s sucked up a surprising amount of time.  I’ve found myself working…

A disappointment

May has ended and I wasn’t able to finish my garage project.  I have lots of excuses.  Work got busy, I took a new role, travel, conferences, etc, etc, etc.  In the end – I just didn’t move fast enough.  I spent too much time in the beginning going back and forth on decisions.  What…
