Home Imp's Roove Mint

So I've been a busy boy, and since it seems that the only thing that will inspire me to post to this livejournal thingy is milestones in the ever-progressing House of Death and Water, aka 'La Casa Du Bolistead' aka Beechview Arms aka "The Precipice", I figure that the recent installations deem themselves worthy of some attention via the intrawebs.

I've installed some new countertops:



And put in some cabinets with swell copper pipe handles:





More countertop is imminent, as are more cabinets, and therefore, more handles. This means more slaving over a hot torch, in a smoky basement, listening to smoldering NPR.

This does in fact mark one of the first things that I am able to cross off of my master list of things to do to my house. That will be a nice feeling, as I've had that list (visible on the corkboard in the first picture) posted in the kitchen for a couple months now, and not having a single thing crossed off of it has made me somewhat weepy at times. Not like, full-blown tear-jerking blubbery, but you know. A little misty. Like at the end of a movie where the retarded guy wins the race.

More later.
