Midlife Make-Over

A Cup Of Tea

 

I have now entered into the midlife kitchen make-over...

(Twilight music playing)

 

Now during this make-over no one has offered us a mini vacation,

while a whole crew comes in to do everything!

 

No,  just ourselves and our son and daughter in law,

also our oldest grandson.

 

We have the ceiling painted flat white,

 and most the walls done in bright yellow.

Sanding and painting my cupboards, a very pretty color

 called Chinking. But my island is done in a fresh

green color called Laurel.

All the side of the cabinets are done in a wains coat.

The top rail is in a satin Red color.

The style is really a French Country look.

 

This is a huge project,

 but it will be warm ,and have a cozy feeling when done!!

 

Ok, the moral of this story is this:

When in the thick of things on the first day of

this make-over. I was so exhausted and overwhelmed...

My sweet Amy brought me a cup of hot steaming

delicious Earl Gray tea, with cream and sugar.

It just about brought tears to my eyes.

I needed to be refreshed.

 

Let me encourage all of us,

We are our brothers keepers!

A cup of tea and and a encouraging word goes a long way.

 

We are blessed to have a son who can do all the precise cutting

and fixing almost everything:)
