the remaking of a kitchen

we are really, almost, well, close, getting there, not much more to do.............ready to say, it's done! does that sentence sound like i'm not ready to say FOR SURE? well, yeah. we drug the humongous ladder up the stairs yesterday and don worked on edges with a brush from the top of the stairs and i worked from the top of the ladder. still amazes me that i can do that. that height thing is just GONE. don then worked his way on down the stairs with the brush getting all the top and bottom margins painted while i used the roller and covered the rest of the space with that.....it really needs that second coat, and that will probably happen tomorrow.
we finally picked up the bench from the store with the help of a neighbor's suv, and it is BIG. i suspect it will return to the store. it's too tall or something, but it's sad as the design works as does the color of the upholstery. it's hard to tell scale in a store with high ceilings and huge spaces. this one's disappointing, but we can really live without a bench. the other new things are great in the rooms.....so think positive i say.
is it finally time to consider shopping for christmas gifts?
