Everyone says we will soon be living in luxury on the river. I believe them. It is hard to see the end at this stage. Our entryway still looks like a third world country. But, hey, in my defense, this is still a “contraction zone.” It says so right on the front door!  

It just seems silly to organize and clean up the area, when I know 1) I will have to move it again soon, and 2) soon we will have a kitchen.

We are pretty far away from the luxury lifestyle everyone says we will soon have. I suppose I could tidy up a bit.

Motivation is low, but looking at the picture makes it seem more real that living with it.

But our kitchen is starting to actually take shape. I told you I would report on the oven installation.

They did it!  Like I said, not much margin for error–but no errors were made. The oven is IN.  

   Yay Jay (hub), Bill(talented kitchen installer guy), Norm (LCN Kitchens in Windsor), Donney (salesman par excellence at Sears), God (He may not need an intro to some of you)–not necessarily in that order. It is perfect!

Now, after the island is installed (anchored) and the countertop template people come out, we will be ready for the counters.

There’s a little touch up painting to do because we moved the countertop vent forward 6 inches. But, hey, that’s not problem for these talented people.

Luxury living here I come. Almost.
