Remodeling is Scary
WHAT: Random | WHEN: January 23, 2010
We're about 3/4 through the kitchen and living room update, and while things haven't gone exactly as planned (or budgeted), the end is in sight. At one point, it was a little comical how we had to go out the garage, through the backyard and through the master bedroom door to get from one side of the house to the other. I'm sure the neighbors were close to calling 911 every time they saw someone repeatedly walkin' around the house after midnight. Here's a couple images I thought were interesting.
This first one was through a small hole in the plastic tarp covering one of the entrances to the kitchen. Almost looks like you're seeing the kitchen with the cabinets primed through my eyeball. Kinda creepy, actually. BTW, that one handle on the fake drawer you see there... what a beat down it was to get that thing out because the sink drops down right behind it, and there's only about an inch and a half gap to get to the screws on the backside. I'd like to meet the genius that thought that was good design.

The side of the refrigerator was covered with Christmas & holiday cards, and even though it was also covered with plastic, there were a couple spots where I could see some friendly faces poking through. Here's Jen Weintraub's kiddos.

And here's Karen Beyer's little munchkins. Don't let the plastic fool you... both Jen and Karen's kids are ridiculously cute.. the plastic tarp makes them look like they're in a movie poster for the Shining Part II, though.

Stay tuned for pictures of the final product.
