Zoo!

Art and I went to the zoo a couple weeks ago. We had a lot of fun looking at all the animals. 

  

  

A great one....

I heard a Miranda Lambert song Guilty in Here this morning. Two lines from the song made me think of dating in my 20's.


'Cause the good ones all got wedding rings
and the young ones are just too dumb


It made me laugh because that is exactly how I felt back in the day. Luckily I held out and found a GREAT one! The longer Art and I are together the more I realize how well we just fit together. He was the right one just for me. The timing was just right when he came along. 

Kitchen Cabinets

While Danielle visited we repainted my kitchen cabinets. Danielle did 75% of the work and I did 25%. While I was working one morning she took off all the cupboard doors and hinges. We had to replace all the hinges, since the previous owners painted over the tops of the. 

Boy do my kitchen cupboards look like a nightmare! lol

We placed plastic wrap on the floor and painted all the drawers. Then we moved all the drawers to the garage to dry. 

Laid the cupboard doors on the plastic wrap and painted all of them.

AFTER - these are pictures with my cell phone

The cupboards look soooooo much better! I can actually wipe them down now and get dirt off them. I have NO idea what type of paint the previous owners used, but if you got something on the door it was stuck there!

Pink!

Gotta love the pink hair!!! I am not sure if I will ever get use to people with funky colored hair!

Wordless Wednesday - July 4th

Longshoremen

Recently my employer just acquired a new client longshoremen of the West Coast. While Art and I were on our cruise around the Bay I snapped some pictures of the Port of Oakland. I sent my boss a picture and told her our lives were about to change forever because of these people. This is a HUGE client for us and we are very excited. I am hoping to get a tour of the Port of Oakland one day soon.  I felt like an ant next to these huge ships and containers.
