So this past Sunday, we made a trip out to Lowe's to pick up some paint samples. We were also looking for some things to help control cat litter in the basement (around the boxes). So Shannon spent quite a while looking and paints samples and colors and getting and idea of what colors she wanted in the various rooms we are painting. We also got some plastic mats for under the kitty boxes. And also a nice brown mat with some circle designs to go in front of the door.

We grabbed some information on Pella storm doors (Val works there). And looking at our front door. In order to reduce some of the cool air that travels through it. I was thinking that we could basically put the storm door over the entire front entry way...at least that's my theory...I'm sure I'll have to ask someone about that. I'm sure we can also do the back door and kitchen door.

So it begins, the drive to make this house more our place. this will surely be aided on by any sort of tax refund.
