Themes and Brand New People

I have hacked the theme to the blog/site again. I am slowly making it very Vista Aero in appearance. There are several relatively minor changes, but it looks more Aero than before. Have I mentioned before that I like the Aero theme? Oh, I have. Sorry.

I eventually want to polish up my theme and then plop it over on the Wordpress Theme Viewer website. Step 3, profit.

The theme works perfectly in Gecko browsers, Opera and IE7. It has a minor issue with the rollover buttons in IE6. Eh, IE6 sucks. Who cares.

 

In other news, I became a Great Uncle today. not a great uncle, I already know I’m great *tounge in cheek* but the relation to my niece’s son, you know. a Great Uncle. Damn, I’m old. I’m now of the "Grandparents" generation. Ugh.

Kitchen Floor

Warning: Rule Breaking Boring Daily Life Post – For My Amusement Only

I am having my kitchen floor replaced today. We spent the last couple of weeks preparing the floor for replacement, and boy has it been an adventure. We had to remove everything from the room, cut up 2 layers of old lineoleum, remove a billion year old layer of Masonite, lay down a new layer of lauan plywood, epoxy the seams and nail heads and then have the professionals install the new Vinyl floor. Unforseen issues include: Masonite underneath drywall at edges of room, water feed for icemaker snapped off (water was off!), hardwood floor underneath (except for 2 patches) actually looked salvagable.

Then, we decided that the old stove sucks ba**s and needed to be replaced, so we went to Lowes and ordered a new one.

All in all, it cost less than $1000 to do, (stove included) and the kitchen will look really nice when done. As I look at the vinyl now around the corner as they lay it, I can say that I am satisfied with the design I picked. It really looks nice. Stove comes Saturday.
