Now that we’re (probably) going to be able to keep our house, I’m looking around at all of the things I don’t like and wishing I could afford to fix them. I had big plans to repaint the living room right before my husband got laid off and we’ haven’t done that due to lack of funds, so I’d like to do that, along with some various other painting and decorating projects.
But I think if I could afford it, the first thing I’d change is my kitchen countertops. They were a DIY project done by the previous owner and I despise them. It’s tile and the grout is absolutely disgusting because it’s impossible to keep clean. Plus the colors are red white and blue which are not colors I would have ever chosen. Yuck, yuck, yuck.
In my dream kitchen I’d have high end custom cabinets, granite countertops, top of the line appliances, and every convenience known to man. In reality, I can deal with the very very old kitchen we have if only I never had to clean that damn grout again. Formica may be cheap, but it doesn’t have grout lines that have to be scrubbed with a toothbrush regularly and never look clean anyway. Someday…
