M.I.A.

Ok, I guess it's time to make an appearance. A weird thing for me about blogging is that after I wait too long to make an entry on my blog, I feel that I need to come up with a really good entry. Then, the longer I wait, the better my next entry has to be. I have waited so long, I feel like I need to announce that I won the lottery or something. I have not won the lottery. But, I have had some things to say.

Gas prices! Holy Cow! Obviously gas prices have made me change the way my family drives. I think it will get way worse before it gets better. In fact, I think gas will get so outrageous that people will eventually abandon their cars. Gas is so bad, that I have been checking out gasbuddy.com. It is a site that allows people to enter local gas prices in that they see while driving around town. I use it to tell my wife to fill up while she is at work at the Speedway near where she works. I know the lowest prices all the time. It also tells me when gas prices are about to go up. I usually can get a fill-up before the prices rise 20 cents overnight. It also helps me figure out my gas mileage. It's a cool site, I have no affiliation with it, I just think it is neat.

My kitchen is done. I have been working the last couple of weeks on my kitchen. We decided to re-do it. We wanted a new counter-top because the one we had was... well, kinda junky. And since we got a new counter-top, we wanted a new floor. Well, you can't get a new counter and floor without painting, so we painted. It made a huge difference. the counter came with a free stainless double sink, so that was good too. Our old sink was only one compartment and without an automatic dishwasher, a one compartment sink kinda stinks. I did all the work myself, wich was kinda fun. Here are some before and after pics. the first one is before, and the second is after.





the pictures don't really show much, but T and I are very happy with it. I wonder what her next project for me will be.
