Last month (wow, was it only a month ago?!) I had my kitchen cabinets refinished and painted white and I couldn't be happier with the results. The look is more up to date and fresh and bright. I think I'm finished with the kitchen for now so I'm exhaling a bit and feel good. It's very satisfying.

I've been in this home for nine months now and I feel pleased with the way I've transformed it from a nice sound structure to one that is now more beautiful and has much more evidence of TLC. The yard, front and back, had zero thought put into it and really was a disaster. When I bought the property there were pretty flowers planted in the front, but they were annuals that were dead by the time I moved in over a month later. Weeds and the lack of upkeep was all I could see.
I really thought my "job" or work here was to make this space more beautiful and comfortable and one of peace and comfort. And so far I think it is!
Here are some garden photos just taken. There was absolutely NOTHING of beauty in the backyard before I moved in.
