Projects Galore

The kids have been off of school for a week.  There has been a lot of neighborhood playing, phone calls and sleepovers.  Pretty much my kids don't need me too much.  Sometimes they need me to drive them somewhere but so far not too much.  So maybe I will have time to do some projects, at least that is what I am hoping.  I have a list a mile long of projects I want to do.  And recently I decided on a new project.  I want to re-do a hutch for my dining room.  I don't currently own a hutch so I am hoping to find one at Salvation Army or on Craiglist or a yard sale. I am going to check out this one tomorrow:
It is on Craiglist and they want $85 for it.  It is BIG and will be quite the project.  It will also take up pretty much the whole wall in my dining room, but I think that is what I am looking for.  Not sure if this is "The One" since I just started looking but I hate to pass it up.  It's going to be white and I plan to take the doors off the top, not sure if that middle door looking thing will come off.  I will see tomorrow night. 

We have so many home improvement projects and what not that needs to be done, I have decided that I can't wait for anyone else to do them, 'cuz that ain't happening.  Calling a contractor next week to look at a dry rot problem and then it will go from there.  I also plan on purging everything in my house, if I don't love it or use it, it's going.  If I bought something with a project in mind then I will do the project or get rid of the crap I got for it.
