My parents remodeled their kitchen when I was high school, I remember being camped out in the dinning room for what seemed like months. I love the cabinets you picked out! Our kitchen in our house is so small and our sink so impractical, its shallow, single welled, white porcelain and doesn't have a lip so it makes a mess. We would have to completely change out the surrounding cabinets to fit a new sink in there, we also need some refacing done but want to move and don't have a lot of money so none of that may happen, probably just leave it to the next owners to expand the kitchen with an addition like many of our neighbors have done.Thank you...we've been dealing with so many issues and learning as we go. Sometimes I wonder why on earth we decided to remodel the kitchen. We're getting there. Thanks for the Magic Eraser idea too!
Thanks! Yeah, don't be jealous of all the hard work for sure and all the snags along the way. There are things we have done wrong...so many things that we did wrong...seems like we are moving one step forward and two steps back every day.I'd love to see your progress on the bathroom. So sorry about your husband's job. I hope things get better for you guys soon.
We have the heater kit for our nipple system which has copper for each nipple which is supposed to transfer the heat to the nipples so they do not freeze and I just received the bird bath heater that goes inside the unit to heat it. I still need to somehow cover the unit a little more so it is out of direct cold wind. Then I still have to worry about the hose freezing, which if I was rich I'd just buy a heated hose, but I am not rich so I may just have to refill the waterer each morning still but at least it won't freeze throughout the day. At least it is better here with the weather, not like some of you with a lot of freezing days all Winter long.
Question, do you think the heater kit you got would work for a bucket nipple system and/or does the company sell individual parts like the copper?
It's so miserable outside and I'm sick and so sore. I gave the girls a pie plate of warm feed and scratch (just added a cup of 175 water- I'm a tea drinker so I have a hot water dispenser). But I feel bad for them huddled under the coop. Not looking forward to this aspect of winter. Speaking of which we need to get some think clear plastic for the two windows, back vent, under the coop and some of the run. There is plenty of other ventilation on the top of the sides and front but the windows and back blow too much on their roost bar.
And to get back on topic, anyone have any recent pics? rnchick we haven't heard from you in awhile! And who had the Buckeye chicks? I would love to see how they are growing. I won't take up too much space since I just posted photos yesterday but there are lots of pics of Victoria in my Week 29 album and good shots of Amelia, Morgaine, Victoria and Baby in the bottom portion of Week 28: https://www.backyardchickens.com/g/u/258296/autumnhearth/photosets/1/
