How does that saying go – something about idle hands doing the devil's work?
We find ourselves suddenly after some 20+ years… with kids who not only have their own transportation but (still the realization sinks in) no longer have any events we need to attend.
This opens up a lot of prime free-time.
So … what to do …what to do…
Travel? no – we have upcoming college expenses. Hobbies? Welp not for me, I am not the ‘hobby’ type. I prefer something with more of a purpose – you won’t find me collecting stamps or building ships in bottles. So what does that leave…anyone, anyone…
Yup – time for more home improvement.
We are starting off with some light action -- wallpaper removal and painting, but somewhat larger projects are on the horizon. These include, but are not limited to… removing a built-in cabinet from the living room, installing new kitchen counters and sink, and then who knows – perhaps a small addition, or maybe digging a curtain drain (hmm, then we can rent one of those little backhoe thingys… oooh)
So these idle hands are certainly not doing the devil's work… unless Hell is need of some repair and redecorating.
