Maybe I could schedule a conference call for you and Tony so you could inform him of this...? :D

Give him few beers and than talk to him again. I think you'd find him to be more agreeable. LOL

Yet another reminder of just why I like you SO very much :p! Perhaps I shall prepare a Jim Beam smoothie for him for brekky! :D

:thumbup::thumbup: Make it a video conference call and I will prepare diagrams showing medical evidence of the positive impact of the table on your physical and mental well-being. The table releases all kinds of positive chemicals in the brain. :p;):D

Hi All, I miss being on YT and only get to check in every once in a while.

My kitchen remodel is progressing, but slower than expected. At this point, everything has been removed right down to the studs, and we are dealing with tile, electrical, plumbing, etc.; my new teak cabinets are gorgeous, although they are sitting in my living room, new appliances are in my family room. Without a kitchen for 2 weeks has been like camping... I have the microwave, a toaster oven and BBQ, so we survive ok :)

While waiting through many delays, my contractor helped me empty out 22 years of accumulated stuff in my garage, put up sheet rock, and put new white cabinets out there. Hard work, but amazing.

If all goes well I will have my new kitchen about a week before Thanksgiving. Keeping fingers crossed as Monday they are drilling down through concrete to install 4 steel posts to hold up the large granite bar top.... and hope we don't hit unknown water or electrical lines.

Biggest bonus of all...... the love relationship with my contractor/boyfriend has continued to grow, and we are soooo happy. Hey if we can survive remodeling together while living in this house, so early on...... that's a good sign that we can survive anything.

Totally loving you right now :D!

I cannot wait to see it! :)

Also so happy to hear of continued awesomeness with the hottie contractor :D! I had been wondering how that was going. And yup, if you 2 can survive *this*, anything is possible!

How awesome is this DIY pallet dog/baby gate...??!!

:D Ohhh Sandy!!! (That always makes me want to burst into that Grease song...:D)

Such wonderful, happy news - I think of you often, wondering how it's 'all' going for you - brilliant to hear that all is well!!! Big hugs from the 3 of us :) xxx

:) Ann! We're just watching the Grand Prix qualifiers on TV...and my goodness, the Texas (Texan?) weather?!!!!? Is it affecting you all?

Andy asked if that pallet could be converted to a boat - or maybe even a raft...?!!!? :eek: :D xxx

Hi Sandy!! I am very happy to hear that you and your contractor bf are enjoying life together.

I can't wait to see your teak cabinets and your finished kitchen. Your garage overhaul sounds fantastic too.

Looking forward to photos!

Luckily, we didn't get affected by the bad weather bc otherwise, yes, we might've needed a raft :eek: :D!

I get pellats in all the time. We usually break them down and throw them away... Goodness.. I think you'd really enjoy living near me as I have a lot of "extra material" you could probably use!

I've been keeping my eye out here for stray pallets - and I got nuthin'!! So yup, I would love to take your pallets off your hands. Wish I could stop by and pick them up :)!

Check the yellow pages (are they still around? lol) for local cabinet making shops or countertop manufacturing shops. Call them up and see if they have any they're throwing away.

We get ppl stopping by from time to time asking for them or for some leftover materials (plywood, melamine, solid wood, etc) we don't use. We just give them for free.

Bet you'd be able to score some nice stuff with your looks there... ;):p:D
