We peeked

It is torture to have the kitchen cabinets here and to have to wait two weeks for installation (except of course for all  the work we need to do between now and then).

Today we looked at desk cabinets so we could do electrical. We are going to hide all charging in a desk drawer. The charging situation is a little out of control with 3 iPhones, 3 iPads and all Eric's cochlear implant stuff. Maybe if it is an drawer, it will be "neat". Anyway, we had to look at cabinets to see if we could switch them or not (nope!!).

Here is file drawer and cookbook cabinet. Another rule right now for me: no more cookbook purchases until the kitchen is done. I could be (am?) obsessed with cookbooks! A little weird for someone who has no time to cook.

Window coverings

To help us live like normal people again, we got window coverings in great room and breakfast nook and in Murphy's room (TV room). By the way, you must name rooms and stick to those names to avoid confusion. This has been difficult with all the bathrooms. Anyway, we always called Murphy's room that, and we are sticking to it.

Installation starts May 4

Crazy house starts...

In preparation for the kitchen install, our house has become more crazy than normal.

Eric installed the pot filler, but the old stove does not fit under it. So for now the stove sticks out in the galley kitchen. First world problem but it is annoying! Pot filler is cool though for people who make pasta every night. New cooktop is here so we could check filler location. I am so excited about it!
