My older daughter gave me some good advice a few years ago. I was wondering about trading cars - mainly because of the way my car looked. She said, "Why not have your car detailed and then make the decision."
I didn't have it detailed but I did get a deluxe cleaning that included shampooing the interior and one of those Christmas tree thingys that smells good hanging from rear view mirror. That satisfied me for a couple more years.
As you know, I have an old kitchen. A couple of years ago when I was fussing about the sink, Dave bought me a fancy new faucet. Made all the difference.
Last week, while I was in a meeting, he went to Lowe's and bought shiny new pans for the burners on our 27 year old stove. Today I Windexed all the shiny parts, including the tea kettle. The whole thing sparkles.
I'm glad Dave and I think alike.
There is a little problem that will need to be addressed soon. The self cleaning oven no longer does. My older daughter also told me this: "When you turn on the oven and the whole house smells like a fantastic roast beef - but you haven't put anything in there yet - it's time to clean it."
