A little closer

We have made lots of progress and things are close to being done.

Today Rocky is at home with the counter guy and we also had an inspection on the heating system which YAY passed. We had all the ducts replaced because the old ones were super old and even crushed in some places under the house. As I mentioned before we also had asbestos, not good, so that was removed. We now have a high efficient heater which keeps us and the upstairs of the house nice and toasty. Before we had no heat upstairs and the whole garage and laundry room were super hot. Looking forward to getting the lower PG & E bill.

The kitchen is looking really nice. The cabinets have all been installed, one coat of paint has been put on the second will be done once the kitchen is finished so the guys don't scratch up the walls. The counter guy is there today. The light fixtures and backsplash will be done on Thursday. I think the only thing that will be left to do is add the knobs and pulls to the drawers and cabinet doors but we are still waiting for those to arrive. I can't wait til it's all done. It's going to look pretty and it'll be nice to have the kitchen back :o)


These are the old cabinets and the big space to the left is where the fridge was before, it's like in the middle of the wall. The white power outlet you see is above the counter and that's where the fridge was plugged into...that was a big No No.

Walls after the old stuff was ripped out


Ripped out walls after they realized they had to do electrical work :o(


The new cabinets and now the fridge has it's own plug behind it
