When I had decided to just give up all the old shit in the kitchen. I don’t realize what sort of inspiring adventure it would turn out to be!

So with that said, here is what my middle of the road price choices brought my way!

The glasses, oh my goodness are each pieces of art! Each one hand blown glass. All different from the next! Found 16oz glasses 6 for $15 bought 2 of those sadly! Should have bought more! 🙁 for presents!! While adding a 24 oz set for the thirsty! Size difference distinguishable by design or lack of!

The Dinnerware definitely made me feel Bonita! An unusual design plate with good sized salad plates, salad bowls and soup bowls! Full set of 24 for under $100! As I plan to entertain on occasion. I added an addition 6 dinner plates! Makes a nice balanced set!

The coolest pieces I picked up were the silverware! I really questioned my decision as fancy laser engraved silverware just sounds cheap and low rent!

Was I wrong! I picked up the 40 piece set in smoked black and a 20 piece set in gold! After opening the box I was definitely pleased with my decision! They are not light nor heavy! Perfect weight with a cool, somewhat classy design engraved!

Only time will tell how well the design holds up! Not to mention they are anodized stainless steel…..

Oh and my ramen bowls! I can’t wait to make my next batch of home cooked ramen! 80oz bowls are perfect size! 40oz are perfect for top ramen and my kashee and granola addiction!

Sorry was nap time….

After umami ramen! I’ve been waking up super early to get in condition for the new job! 05:00 local time is actually 07:00 central time. Which is the time zone I’ve been working off of for the last 23 years!

So when I finally start work. If I have to be there at say 03:00 local time. Which is actually 05:00 central time. The pain of early starts won’t be to bad……

To the point of this post! lol, after finding out the laundry room curtain was a bed sheet. I went and ordered an actual bathroom style curtain last night!

Same color and all. I now just know that it’s an actual curtain!

It looks much better! And I know it’s an actual curtain now!

Of course that area would look so much better with solid wood oak French doors but…..

The builder who built most these houses. Really had some fucking weird floor plans!

Then after last nights ant ambush. I found these 1 gallon sealed lid, wide mouth jars to put sugar and flour in! Oddly they included a white grease pen to note contents with! 🙂

Then since I was ordering, I went ahead and ordered that laundry room wall hook to hang sorts and shit on…..

Luckily I’m somewhat handy huh?

I’ve figured it out…..

Channels 0 – 50 are local over the air channels in pdx!

100 – 200 – movie channels and regular tv show

200 – 300 – movie channels and rerun shows

300 – 400 – rerun shows, bbc channels, war / military

500 – 600 – all things sports

600 – 700 – kids tv shows

700 – 800 – cooking shows, arts / crafts, travel, home remodel etc

800 – 900 – telemundo…..

900 – 1000 – movies, information, holiday scapes

This is the basic channel guide of a LG free tv interface…..

Now to figure out how to make a favorites list that I can directly run to when I want to watch tv…..

We did it girl…..

We stuffed what was left after a large garbage haul into the back of that Toyota Camry!

I don’t know how we did it but we did! In 750 miles we will be fucking free!

It was sad though! I put half a million miles on this truck! That wasn’t it, it was finding all the kids old safety jackets, toys and crafts they made when out on the road with me!

Always brings a tear to my eye!

Oh and I found Tammy! 😉

Inside joke! 🙂

Threw away all the pillows except cougar, threw away all those extra blankets I would keep in the truck! In case of emergency, homeless or accident….

Now we go spray it down, vacuum it out and wipe it down……

In 5 days it will officially be 30 years of otr, 5,000,000 miles and a whole lot of bullshit to go with it…..

P.s lee’s grocery store sells those garbage bags! They fucking rock for $4! They are like those really strong ridged crockery bags only garbage bag size!

Well the kids…..

Do a much better job at decorating the tree! I think while puppy spent most her time humping her bed.

I think we did good!

Really like how the bolo top hat turned out!

Just needs another color on the back! Maybe blue?

The off white wired ribbon really changed the look! But those hand blown ornaments really do shine!

Only thing i truly wish i could do is tie a bow! A big bow made with the extra ribbon would really make the bottom and top pop!

Oh and since the tree is pretty much the same all the way around. I could only get a few fineals to hang like they are supposed to!

What do you think?

Just ran over…..

To my nephews to drop off some of that home brew iced coffee! Hope he enjoys it! That was full power dope right there!

Added bonus if he digs it I now have a Xmas present idea For him! 🙂

But after a wild 4 days, it’s time to wind down. Enjoy some easy listening instrumental Xmas music on Alexa. Work on the Xmas tree and enjoy my time!

As next week is gunna be a busy fucking week for me!

Next time I’m home, I’ll be home for good!

Wow, so wild to say that after 30 years, and 5 million miles….. kind of brings a tear to an old man’s eye!

The cool thing…..

About having a 65” tv in your bedroom is……

You can watch tv and not need to wear your glasses!

All while laying in bed with your seriously clingy dog watching old nick cage movies!

FYI, Peggy sue got married really was a shitty movie! 🙂

That’s why it’s…..
