Underway

After all this time, our kitchen & bath project has started. We had
the kickoff meeting on Tuesday afternoon, April 7, with our builder/designer guy, the owner of the company, and the job supervisor. We had the option of beginning on Monday the 13th, but the workers were ready and willing to start the next day,so we agreed to that, and they showed up in their truck early the next morning and by the end of the day the walls in the kitchen had been taken down and most of the cabinets were gone.

2009-04-08 First Day


We have the fridge and a piece of the old kitchen countertop in the dining room. Yesterday we finally got stuff kind of organized in there so we can actually cook. And we did put out some chicken and potatoes in the Solar Chef. Also at our disposeal we have a microwave, crockpot, foreman grill, toaster, popcorn popper. Dad found a hot plate for us, too. We have to get water either from the basement or the 2nd floor bathroom.

The project will take 10 weeks. The field supervisor is here every day, Monday through Friday. And every Monday morning, the denizens of this house will meet with him and the project builder/designer guy to see how things are going.

Doesn't it make more sense to move all the cooking stuff to the basement or second floor, closer to water? I can't imagine you guys running up and down stairs constantly for 10 weeks!
