Between maps and Wordl, I may have to ban myself from Addiction.

A larger kitchen renovation was the plan in late 2019, and then early 2020 happened... For a short time, we thought that we might move, instead, but the development that we had designs on didn't pan out. We're still pretty sure that this place isn't the long term solution for us, but we circled back to a smaller refresh to make things a little more enjoyable while we're still here (which is why I was totally fine with saving myself some trouble with overlaid doors).
I hope to be done a little faster than that. I'm going to work in stages - hopefully I'll have the two upper cabinet walls done within a month or so. I'm done with the broad strokes of the design, currently laying everything out in SketchUp. I'm starting to go cross-eyed from staring intently at the screen all day.

Tell me about it. When I worked for the State of Illinois, all of our engineering vehicles were Travel-Alls, Scouts, etc. because IH had a factory in Canton, IL. Man, they were junk. They were junk when they were new. This was in the '70s and I know most cars were junk but these were junk of several magnitude.

Asbestos gone. Lots of rotten sheathing and we insulation and a mystery: Where’s the brick? This was a freaking brick house!

There are times when I enjoy a nice meal and am willing to pay for it. Christmas dinner fit that bill this year since we were not at home. My wife was surprised to see the $600+ charge on the account when we got home, but it was a really nice place, the food was very good, we had a nice bottle of wine, and I tipped about 30% since it was Christmas evening and the service was exceptional. I also reminded her that it would not be out of the norm to spend close to that on food and drink to have family over for a nice dinner at home.

I have an elderly couple I care for. They adamantly refused to get the vaccine. Of course they both caught the virus last month, they went to see a quack “covid specialist” in NJ who took cash only and put them on a wacky regimen of vitamins etc.
I suggested they should get the vaccine in 1-3 months. They still refuse it.
Sigh.

I was testing out some twitter guy's first word experiment. He originally thought adieu would be great because it covered so many vowels, but said it actually sucked in his experience. So anyway I had to see for myself today, and yep, it's possibly THE worst first word.

Welp, the boy is back to distance learning for the rest of Jan, thanks to the latest COVID bloom.
