New cabinets were not in the original plan.
Have you ever heard that joke, how do you make God laugh?
(Answer: You make plans)
We had planned to reuse as many of our old cabinets as possible. However, when you join a new space to a very old space, some adaptations need to be made and this affected our ability to reuse most all of our old cabinets.
The new cabinets arrived! Yipee and yee-haw! Oh, and the truck they came on couldn’t fit down the driveway.
RTA – Ready To Assemble
It only takes us an hour to figure out that we did get the 26 items we ordered. It only takes assembling 2 cabinets to figure out that, we were not assembling them properly. Assembling them correctly certainly ups our opinion of their sturdiness. It only takes assembling cabinet 4 to find we/I ordered the wrong configuration, as it is 24 x 30, not 30 x 24.
We go to bed because we are tired. Everything seems better in the morning…with coffee…and a beautiful sunrise…
…and a new plan.
I can almost hear God laughing, but I do know for sure, we are blessed.
Oooooh no! Better break out the gin!
Always a good idea!
Uh oh 🙁 would be a sleepless night for me!
We agreed ahead of time, that if there were mistakes, that was all part of the expensive of doing it ourselves.
