Hi Nancy,

 RH> I put them into a zip lock bag , padded it with newspaper and took a
 RH> hammer to it this time. Other times I've used a rolling pin on the bag
 RH> but saw the hammer this time and thought it would do a better job,
 RH> only giving one wrist a work out.

 NB> And a different sort of workout for the wrist as well...  :)

A one wrist, vs a 2 wrist work out. But it worked the elbow too, and
that's not always a good thing.

 RH> things set up. I've got to do some reorganising to get stowage for the
 RH> odds and ends but it'll come. Once I load up the buffet, the living
 RH> room will be almost box free..................................

 NB> And you'll begin to believe that it really will finally be
 NB> accomplished...  ;)

That may happen this week; Steve's got some book shelving and media
shelving in place so they can be loaded up. I can also load up the
buffet so a lot of boxes will get emptied out.

 NB>  RH>> Front bathroom now has an aqua colored rug, master has a cream
 NB> colored  RH>> one. Aldi's had a sale. (G)
 NB>  NB>> How convenient...  ;)

 RH> Yes, but they had no big aqua rugs, only one cream one and it had a
 RH> spot on it (but we got it anyway). Nice thick, cushy feel to it too.

 NB> Did you get a discount on the cream one for the spot...?  Sounds like
 NB> a nice enough one though... ;)

I mentioned asking about one to Steve but we didn't, when we checked
out. Oh well, it should wash out.

 RH> It'll all get done, plus the extras. Steve had to go on line to order
 RH> a drop down hinge for my cook book drop down shelf, the big box
 RH> hardware stores didn't stock it. The hinge was expensive, but a pre
 RH> done shelf was over twice the cost of a hinge, and materials to do the
 RH> job aren't too costly.

 NB> And Steve is handy enough to do the work on it...  :)

That's why we're putting it in. He's doing a lot of little things like
that, that we couldn't do in rental housing, to make this our house.

 NB>  RH>> Steve was talking about redoing the kitchen counter tops; that
 NB> will be  RH>> a relatively soon project but probably not for some
 NB> months, at least.  NB>> Before or after the pantry overhaul...?

 RH> The pantry redo, if there is one, will come whenever we add the
 RH> garage. That's some years down the road yet.

 NB> Ah, so 'twill be much sooner than the pantry redo...  :)  And who
 NB> knows, you might decide that you are happy enough with what you have
 NB> after
 NB> all...  :)

Time will tell on that one. Some things are getting moved from shelf to
shelf as they look for homes, other things stay pretty much on the same
shelf.

 NB>  NB>> Need to locate those wayward boxes... :)

 RH> It's just small stuff in them; I've got the big things put in place
 RH> now.

 NB> Getting there... ;)

The end to the big stuff is in sight.

 NB>  NB>> You're getting there...  ;)   When you do find that cookbook,
 NB> set it  NB>> someplace safe... and re-findable...  (G)

 RH> Trouble is, finding a safe and refindable spot around here. It's a
 RH> very fluid location, depending on what room we're working on.

 NB> You may have to designate a spot for safe stowage... ;)

Even that can vary from day to day, depending on if we're working on
that room or not.
