Change 33 – Paint Kitchen

I have decided to paint our kitchen and our kitchen cabinets.

Several years ago, I painted our old wooden cabinets a shiny white.  Some of the paint has chipped away, and it’s time to repaint.  I think I’m also going to add a fresh coat of paint to the walls, just to spruce things up a bit.  So far, I’ve found the paint colors that I want, I’ve purchased some sandpaper for my sander, and I’m ready to get started.  I’m going to take my time, remove each cabinet door, carefully sand them to remove any gloss, apply a new primer, and then paint each door.

Change 29 – Maintain An Organized Office

I have decided to maintain a neat and organized office.

I do the majority of my work from home, but I also have an office at work.  From time to time, the office becomes a dumping place for all of the stuff that doesn’t have a home somewhere else.  Last week, I cleaned out my office, discarded all of the stuff that didn’t belong in it, and I plan to keep it nice and neat.

I actually have a shelving unit in my office that I barely use.  I am trying to decide if I want to keep it, or get rid of it.  I also have a box of books that I either need to get rid of via eBay or donation.

Change 25 – Organize Tools

I have decided to organize my tools.

I don’t really have a place to put all of my tools, but I do have a large laundry room, half of a storage shed, and a pump house.  I’m trying to figure out exactly how to organize all of my tools, so that I’ll have easier access to them.  Right now, hammers are in one place, screwdrivers in another place, and paint brushes in yet another.  This disorganization slows me down when I need to get anything done.  I’m tired of waisting time rounding up tools.
