Kim's Kitchen Remodel Part 1

Kitchen cabinets - that is what started this whole project. We wanted to paint the kitchen cabinets from a maple to white. When talking to my husband about the cabinets, he suggested adding a bigger pantry by knocking out a wall in the garage as well. Then we got talking about new countertops and adding onto the island, and then BAM, we were doing a full on remodel! 

 

Our pantry was basically nonexistent before starting the project - very small and not very functional. We had an odd space in our garage that was not being used and it was in the perfect spot right behind one of our kitchen walls. The space in the garage wasn't a full 3rd car garage size, I think it was originally built to park motorcycles or bikes. So it was on the smaller side and we just felt like it was unused and wasted space. We removed some of our countertop and cabinets and knocked a hole through the wall opening up right into that space. 

 

Our Water Heater was in that space and needed to be moved, and by doing this project we discovered it was on it's last leg. We decided to swap out our big water heater for a tankless water heater and in doing so discovered the old one was very rusted on the bottom and could have given out at any minute. Thankfully we caught it in time! (P.S. Totally loving the tankless water heater - it's awesome!)

We also had to lay new concrete where the new pantry would be because it was not completely level. After pouring the new concrete we needed to insulate the pantry as well. It was not insulated very well to begin with and we were worried that it would get too hot in the summer because of the exterior wall being on one side. We had to re-insulate the exterior wall which will help keep not only the pantry much cooler, but the rest of the house too! 

Electrical was up next and were were able to add in some awesome lights! I shared with you my love for Sputnik lights in my first blog post and we put 2 of them in our pantry. I got them from ---------- and I am in loooooove. I love the way they look along with the cactus wallpaper that I got from ----------. My heart skips a beat overtime I walk into the pantry - it's so pretty! 

Thankfully we were able to save money on new cabinets by buying salvaged ones from Lowes. We did not have to buy all new cabinets, but did need to replace a few. They don't match exactly, but once everything is painted, you won't even notice! I love the change from dark to light - such a big contrast and it has really opened up the space and brightened it dramatically. 

My husband and I have done as much work ourselves as possible so far with the exception of hiring an Electrician, a Plumber, and Contractor to help with jobs that were out of our area of knowledge. Those are a few areas that we did not want to cut corners on! Our goal when we started this project was to stay under a budget of $10,000 and we have been able to do that! Doing a lot of the work ourselves has really helped in that area. As well as looking for as many options as possible when it came to design and decor items like using salvaged cabinets and shopping around for the best deal on subway tile has helped keep us on track.

Kitchen remodels are messy and a bit of an inconvenience, but I am so excited about the changes we are making and I can't wait to share the final reveal! Stay tuned for Part 2!

  • ARE YOU A VICTIM OF CRYPTO SCAMS AND WANT TO GET BACK YOUR STOLEN CRYPTOS? WIZARD MILLER HACKER I am pleased to share my experience working with WIZARD MILLER HACKER and their recovery team, whose professionalism and expertise transformed a deeply challenging situation into a remarkable success story. Earlier this year, I became a victim of an elaborate cryptocurrency investment scam. The fraudulent platform displayed convincing professionalism, including simulated profits and responsive “support,” until I attempted to withdraw my funds. This triggered a series of fabricated fees, compliance demands, and eventual account restrictions. My savings — a substantial six-figure sum — became completely inaccessible. After exhausting all direct avenues with the platform, I engaged WIZARD MILLER HACKER. From our initial consultation, their team demonstrated clear competence and transparency. They explained the process in detail, established realistic expectations, and maintained consistent communication throughout. WIZARD MILLER HACKER approached my case with urgency, employing advanced digital tracing methods and legal strategies tailored to cryptocurrency fraud. Within 2 days, my funds were fully recovered — a result I had initially believed to be impossible. Beyond restoring my finances, WIZARD MILLER HACKER restored my confidence and peace of mind. I can recommend their services without hesitation to any individual or organization seeking professional assistance in recovering assets from fraudulent entities.

  • Be very cautious when seeking assistance for recovering lost funds. There are so many people and companies who claim to offer such service but very few are real. When I lost my fund through bitcoin investment a few months ago, I took time searching before I found GENUINE HACKERS that helped me recover $75000 worth of bitcoin. They helped me recover my fund without asking for any upfront payment which made me so happy because I never thought it would be possible to get back my funds. I will recommend them to anyone seeking such services because they are real, tested and trusted. They also have the algorithm and in-depth data analysis to recover any lost funds. Contact them via email as GENUINEHACKERS000@GMAIL.COM or via WhatsApp +1(260) 218-3592

  • Step-by-Step Guide for Recovering Crypto Lost to Scammers by FUNDS RETRIEVER ENGINEER

    FUNDS RETRIEVER ENGINEER – Professional Cryptocurrency Recovery Services for Scam Victims
    Cryptocurrency scams have become one of the fastest-growing forms of online fraud. Victims lose millions every year to fake investment platforms, hacked wallets, phishing schemes, and romance scams involving Bitcoin, Ethereum, and other digital assets. When crypto funds are stolen, many people are told that recovery is impossible.

    Trusted Help for Cryptocurrency Scam Victims
    Unlike traditional banking systems, cryptocurrency transactions are irreversible. However, every crypto transaction is permanently recorded on the blockchain. This transparency allows experienced recovery experts to track stolen funds, identify movement patterns, and support recovery actions when possible.

    FUNDS RETRIEVER ENGINEER works with victims worldwide, offering clear guidance, technical expertise, and ethical recovery support.

    Types of Cryptocurrency Scams We Assist With

    DeFi scams, rug pulls, and fraudulent tokens

    Each case is handled individually, based on verifiable transaction data and evidence.

    How FUNDS RETRIEVER ENGINEER Helps Recover Lost Crypto
    Step 1: Case Evaluation
    Every recovery effort begins with a detailed review of your situation. Transaction hashes, wallet addresses, timelines, and scam communication are carefully analyzed to determine recovery possibilities.

    Step 2: Blockchain Transaction Tracing
    Using professional blockchain tracking tools, stolen funds are traced across wallets, exchanges, and networks. Even when scammers attempt to hide transactions, movement history often reveals valuable leads.

    Step 3: Recovery Support and Reporting
    When applicable, FUNDS RETRIEVER ENGINEER prepares structured findings that can be used to support reports to exchanges, legal professionals, or relevant authorities.

    Step 4: Asset Protection Guidance

    Professional blockchain investigation methods

    Supportive and confidential client communication

    FUNDS RETRIEVER ENGINEER prioritizes transparency and professionalism in an industry where many fake recovery services target scam victims a second time.

    Act Quickly – Time Matters in Crypto Recovery
    The sooner action is taken after a cryptocurrency scam, the better the chances of tracing funds before they are fully moved or laundered. Preserving transaction records and seeking expert assistance early can significantly impact recovery efforts.

    Avoid Fake Crypto Recovery Scams
    A legitimate cryptocurrency recovery service will never:

    Guarantee 100% fund recovery

    Request your private keys or wallet passwords

    Pressure you into immediate payment decisions

    FUNDS RETRIEVER ENGINEER follows ethical recovery standards designed to protect victims—not exploit them.

    Conclusion
    Losing cryptocurrency to a scam can be devastating, but professional help can make a difference. FUNDS RETRIEVER ENGINEER offers trusted cryptocurrency recovery services, helping scam victims trace lost funds, understand their options, and regain confidence in the digital asset space.
