REALLY looking forward to the fresh new look. I'm REALLY hoping the Kitchen counter top guy can get the counter done in the next 2 weeks. IF he can, we will be done with everything possibly as early as a week or two into October. Painting the outside, this time of year, is gonna be a slow go. HAVE to paint in the morning only because it's so FREAKISHLY muggy and hot this time of year AND...we get a TON of rain in the afternoons.
