Kitchen Renovations 3

Thursday is going to be BIG!

Last night I came home from a church group and a friend was in the house with David measuring the kitchen floor. For the porcelain tile! It looks like this is actually going to happen. In fact it is going to start happening Thursday!

Of course on Thursday, one of my LOLs has two doctor appointments.

Thursday from 10am to 2pm is the window for the countertop people to come and make a template. That means tonight we take the old countertop off and finish the preparations.

Thursday evening our friend, Jason, the plumber, is coming to repair the vent pipe and figure out what we need to do to install the dishwasher. That can't happen until after the countertop is installed in 7 to 10 business days, because the countertop comes with a brand new sink. All that will probably require different measurements, etc.

Also on Thursday evening, Mike comes back to begin the linoleum tile removal and porcelain tile installation! He will start in the laundry room, under the almost 3 week old water heater.

Normally if I was expecting this much company, I would clean the house thoroughly and bake cookies. But the house is in semi demolition disarray and I don't have much of a functioning kitchen!

Is this all really happening? I was thinking about the fact that since we have very seldom paid anyone to do stuff in our house, why aren't we more of the "do it yourself" types? Then I realized that we have never really done anything in our house. So .... it is about time!!

Anyway you look at it, Thursday is going to be QUITE a day!!
