I've jumped in with both feet.

We've been needing some work done in the kitchen for about two years now. We had a roof put on back then and it involved
replacing some dry rot. I had someone do the structural stuff right away, but I thought I could handle the rest of it myself.
I've been puting it off ever since.

Now we need the work finished. Cathi threaten me with life and limb if I didn't get it taken care of somehow. I made dozens
of calls to contractors, but no one is availbale untill the fall.

So here I am, hammer in hand, making a mess. I've pulled all the old paneling down, cleaned up the walls and now I need to
do the same with the ceiling. Then I can get an electrician in to wire some outlets, put some sheetrock up and finish the room.

Whew!!!
