Where did the summer go??

Update:

I'm sorry, what can I say? I've been really busy having a great summer/start of school year so not much has been happening on the house front. I really have been preparing for the kitchen remodel, though, there is just nothing to show yet. I have purchased all of my appliances (used) and did it for $1000 even. How did I do it, you wonder? With the help of my favorite classifieds, KSL.com. Craiglist has been dethroned.

My dishwasher is quite beautiful! Who cares if I have no idea if it works! I also went to IKEA to pick out cabinets, etc., and I think I am going to save a lot of money there as well. They would like to charge me $80 for one cabinet door, all because I really want the glossy red. But that is unacceptable to me - so I'm going to buy the cheap white doors and wrap them with a glossy red vinyl courtesy of Jeff's place of employment. And we will see how that turns out.
I'm all about finding alternatives if the quality doesn't suffer. With Ikea, the quality is usually already suffering so I have nothing to lose! See you soon!
