I think I will be happy for this year to be over. It just seems it has not been such a good year for me.
Nevertheless, I am grateful for my many blessings and certainly should not complain.

Today, the guys came to install the quartz counter tops. They got here on schedule, at 0930. They came in the house and immediately saw that they were missing a piece. So, they left and returned to Kansas City (90 mi) to get the piece. Three hours later they return. I am in town running errands and getting paint. Mike is home. When I got home - I walked in the kitchen and about screamed! NOOOOO ! ! ! That is not what I ordered!
This is what they installed....
It is horrible! It is BLACK with a few white specks and shiny mirror pieces in it! Honestly!
Yes, like shiny mirrors!

holy crap! they brought the wrong stuff??? aarggg!

Kathy! What are you going to do? OMG. That happened to us when we remodeled. I went over to check after the carpet installation and it was 3,000 sq feet of cheap white carpet I never ordered! We moved in anyway and they ordered the correct stuff and moved all of our furniture out to install it once it came in.

I am on the edge of my seat to see how this turns out!

 

[The Sheriff]

You might want to reconsider the white white grout to match the flecks.

One word Kathy 'MEN'!! I'm NOT male bashing, only pointing out their differences.

Men understand men and women understand woman. If women were doing your countertop they would understand how much thought you put into selecting a certain color slab(whatever they call it) and NOT bring something else.

If a man can't find the right thing, he brings what he believes to be "just as good." FAIL!! ps I've read color blindness, is very common in men.

I'm sorry.

That is nowhere near what you pictured before. Argh! I hope they fix it!

And after the year you have had, you are entitled to complain.

Kelly, if the goats get their heads stuck, walk around the back side of the fence (where their heads stick out) and they will back away from you, freeing themselves - if you try to pull them out they will only fight you (works great for sheep anyway)

Rinda, try a plastic water bottle partly emptied - I see someone walking their Springer Spaniel with one in his mouth all the time. Carries his own water.

Kathy - Ugh! that is not only wrong, but also unattractive. Hope they fix it.

Here is my latest cheese effort - a wheel of white Cheddar. I cut it in half so that I could age part of it for a few months, and let the other half age longer if wanted.

Before waxing:



And after:

yikes, hope the wrong-countertop mishap can be fixed quickly! how frustrating!

and Mary, not sure if you've been up and about enough to be collecting eggs, but i just sent you a PM... marans eggs will be shipped tomorrow from Texas, hopefully arriving friday. just in case you have extra isbars that could join them!

 

[The Sheriff]

I only have six for you because of the freakin' egg eating. I can wait until midday tomorrow and send what I have if that works for you.

Let me know.

 

[Happy Chooks]

Muttsfan - if I go on the back side, I'll be in with the emus.

The cheese looks fantastic!
