Welcome Visitors

Welcome to my personal blog. I have another blog, Herbert's Place, but that one limits me to what I sometimes want to publish, because it is mainly used to promote my books. As it says in the header, I want to use this blog to write about things that have nothing to do with my books. There is no real theme here. I'll be writing about anything that causes me to either be happy or somethings that concerns me. It could be political, travel, a hobby, or anything else. So come and visit me sometimes.

The wait is over

Finally, the wait is over. We have our new granite counter top. And it looks good. Now we'll have to wait until the silicon dries and then I can connect the new sink. I checked it and my fears were confirmed: The draining holes on the new sink do not line up with the drain pipes. I have to get  new fittings and try to connect the drains. What am I saying? NOT TRY. I have to do it. The problem is that there is not much room to work with and the pipes don't bend. I also have to install and connect the faucets. The holes are drilled. The cook top is also in place and I will connect it maybe tomorrow or Sunday. It won't take long.
Here are a couple of pictures. One shows the kitchen with the new top and the other one after I removed the old counter top.

    Wow it is looking great. If the garage thing doesn't work. Norma is just reading a scandinavian decorating book and they suggest to have a piece of mirror cut and put into the two spots where the garage was to reflect light and give the illusion of more space. A idea if you are really stuck? Nice when things finally start coming together. Do you have under counter lighting? Good luck with the plumbing. :)
