I Can Actually Do Stuff!

Woulda, Coulda, Shoulda!  These are all things we say in regret for something we didn’t do but should have.

For me it is picture taking. 

Lately, I have been working hard in my free time to improve my home but replacing windows and painting rooms and now my latest project is the Kitchen.

I spent the weekend emptying cabinets and ripping them down. 

There is something satisfying to taking a hammer and bashing the *&^$ out of it so that it will fit into the trash can.  Not only is it nice to get rid of something that is a remnant of the old owners but it is also nice to think about all the things that piss me off and then swing the hammer!

  • That peckerhead that cut me off on the 95 – BAM!
  • The friend that came to my home - BAM!
  •  My daughter won’t clean her room – BAM!
  •  The Eagles, Phillies, Sixers and Flyers have not won a Championship in decades – BAM! BAM! BAM! BAM!

It works out great!  I feel so much better today! 

Anyway, getting back to the main point to this post, I wish I had remembered to take before and after pictures of all the work I have been doing because I am proud of the things I have done and I like to show you all that I am not a useless sack of $#!^.  Of course, I have no evidence that I have done anything and you will just have to take my word for it. 

And lastly, it seems that I am the sole person responsible for Global Warming.  Yes, me.  For whatever reason, when I do my home improvement projects, we have record heat waves.  When I was doing the windows and painting last month it was near 100 degrees.  This weekend it was mid 90’s.  Al Gore is going to be coming for me!

    I renovate houses for a living and part of the process is taking before and after pictures. It is the VERY first thing I do. We are at about 1000 houses in 3 years. I seem like a flippin’ photographer and not a construction worker.
