Up early to cook breakfast and head to church. And a quick Texags break with coffee, of course.

Church with my parents, then early Easter lunch at their house in Huntsville. Happy Palm Sunday!

Little sore from the yard day yesterday, but I'm happy with the end result. Cleaning out closets to get ready for my parents to stay with us for a few months when they come back from India.

What that means is moving stuff to storage. Today. And I need some more bins for put closet stuff in. Today.

How many bins do you need? We have some I cleared out.

You're too kind. I need about 6-8 for clothes and memory stuff from my daughters room.

We might have that many spares. I don't know. We would have even more if I could convince my wife that we don't need to keep every book she's ever read.

I'd be happy to take them off your hands. What's the best way to connect?

Thanks!

I was hoping the smell would be better today after cleaning yesterday but it's not.

I still have more cabinets to do but I was hoping cleaning most of the stove stuff yesterday would help.

Probably will end up having to pay someone but we will see.

Which cleaner did you end up using?

scd88 ended up at Target and bought new storage bins.

Anybody in the BCS area need some assorted bins? They need to be sprayed down with multi-surface cleaner and wiped down because they have been in storage.

That's a good order of operations.

Church to be spiritually prepared for the printer install.
Take a walk to get away from the printer install (and you take the dog to keep you from jumping into the river to just end it all- you will want to).
Pub crawl to help you forget about the printer install.
Astros to remind you that you can always take a bat to the printer if it won't cooperate.

I started off with Dawn dish soap and then Murphy's oil.

Today I just now made a paste of vinegar, baking soda, and dawn dish soap, and slathered that crap all over the cabinets. Gonna let it sit for awhile. Above the stove is horrendous.

And I thought I had my laptop in the car, but I don't so guess I'm gonna sit here and try to work off on my phone.

Watched the Ags sweep Mizzou this afternoon and then went to the grocery store. No complaints about my day so far.

I'm assuming that's what the smell is. But I don't know for sure.

I'm just worried it's still gonna smell after we do all this work.

I can tell they changed the countertops and like I can see a little bit of grime right below it, so if they didn't clean well before they put the countertops in I'm wondering if the smell is gonna be sealed there forever. But I know things like what I found today in that photo will make a big difference now that it's clean.

The vinegar, baking soda, dawn dish soap paste helped a ton. I still need to do more, but basically I made the paste, lathered it on parts of the cabinets, and then used a sponge to scrub.

Most of the stuff came off and that wasn't hard work. So while it'll probably take me another couple hours, at least I know that part will be taken care of.

Get the "clearing" oil or whatever it is called (I would have to look) to eliminate the odors.

I can provide the lamp.

I'll check into it, but not sure that this would work any better than a ozone machine which we have. I think the main thing is we have to get to the root cause otherwise it's gonna continue.

You could always just go with the smell and tailor your rental advertisements accordingly.

This obviously would not be preferred but understandable if it's my only option. (Not that it matters who I rent to, but I'd rather be open for everyone and not a certain demographic. ).

I can tell you this is the last time that we will buy a house that has an odor. I was told the ozone machine would fix it, but obviously not with the grime and everything else on the cabinets.
