I like making lists. Somehow it helps me to remember things if I write them down. Possibly because I can actually look at the list and not rely on my memory? Hmmmm. Anyway, we, probably like most other people have an ongoing list of things that need to be done around the house. I keep ours in a notebook, organized by room so that I can find it easily and add it to the honey-do list when I can (Brian LOVES that list).
One of the things that has been on the list for the kitchen ever since we moved in was to get crown moulding put on the top of the cabinets. The builder wanted something like $900 to do it when we were building. At least I think that's what it was - I do remember that it was a crazy amount of money for the one section of cabinets that you can see in the picture and then another 4 foot section above the refrigerator.
So I finally ordered the crown and even got a little crazy and ordered a piece for the bottom of the cabinets, too. (It has a name, but it eludes me at the moment). That was about January. Then a few weeks ago our friend, Tim, from church installed it for us. I was so excited!! It was fun watching it change and look totally different. He did a great job (and he brought homemade toffee - yum!!).
But what I'm most excited about is that we get to cross it off the list - yay!!! I know, I'm strange like that. I get a lot of satisfaction from drawing that line of ink through all of those faded letters after 4 years, and I'm not afraid to admit it!

Looks great, way to go Tim!
That looks really good. You know our list discussion; well Jeff sounds a little like you. He will even write it on the list at the end of the day if it wasn't already there, just so he can cross it off!
Looks great!
