What a nightmare. I’m not sure where I went wrong, but these cabinet doors are not working. Unfortunately, I have so much invested in them (More time than money) that I must make them work. First they were too narrow, and, if the truth be told, and bit crooked. Fixing these issues took a lot of time.I knew they were too...Sat, 19 Jul 2008 20:11:21 GMTTop 10 Sources - Houseblogshttp://www.toptensources.com/post/Houseblogs/thedevilqueen.blogspot.com/sell-your-soul/with-the-downturn-in-the-housing-market-inflationhttp://www.toptensources.com/post/Houseblogs/thedevilqueen.blogspot.com/sell-your-soul/with-the-downturn-in-the-housing-market-inflationWith the downturn in the housing market, inflation, bank failures, rising gas prices, and the imminent disintegration of the economy, I thought you cash strapped housebloggers might be interested in this untapped source of financing for your next home improvement project, selling your soul.

It is just unbelievable. I mean that, really. It is hard to believe that so much catastrophe could befall on one person in such a short time. Just when you think things are going to work out, something else happens that would cripple a normal person, but some how it works out.Oh,...Wed, 16 Jul 2008 05:46:56 GMTTop 10 Sources - Houseblogshttp://www.toptensources.com/post/Houseblogs/thedevilqueen.blogspot.com/touch-my-monkey/okay-its-official-the-first-run-of-the-home-imphttp://www.toptensources.com/post/Houseblogs/thedevilqueen.blogspot.com/touch-my-monkey/okay-its-official-the-first-run-of-the-home-impOkay, it's official! The first run of the Home Improvement Monkey Tee Shirts will be without text. However, second iteration of this shirt may have text. If so, I'm thinking of having a vote to see which text goes on them. We'll see how it goes my pretties.So, I'm ready to start taking pre-orders for the shirt.

I’m going with American Tin Ceiling even though I despise their web site.Originally the plan was to go with all panels and forgo any filler around the edges. The room is 8’3” X 10’6”.

Left over from a long ago house party in our old condo. It will be staying there until we can find a light fixture that we a) agree on, and b) can afford. It's possible that it will be there awhile.

It still needs some work, but I think I ought to be ready to take orders by next week. Now, here is a question for you all: does the design need text (example: Home Improvement Monkey, etc) or should I go with the graphic only? Or, both?
