Saturday - So nice of our neighbors last night to give us a plate of delicious food from their bbq. To pay them back we've hired two guys to cut granite on our back patio at 8:AM. You're Welcome! We have good neighbors, but I can't say that our neighbors have good neighbors.
The good news is that the granite is IN! The bad news is that our stove also is in. Can you say, 'Fish out of water?' How about, 'Doo-doo on a diamond?' Need appliances. The granite looks fantastic; M can't stop staring at it.
Sunday - No water yet but M's cooking for the first time in her new kitchen. Her first complaint: too much room. Let's see if we can't get that faucet hooked up today. M's gonna start clearing the back bedroom and fill up the cabinets. How long have we been living like this? I'm gonna sort of miss it... NOT!
I learned a new trick I call 'How to make your wife happy to do the dishes'. First, make her do the dishes in the bathtub for four months. Then, get the kitchen sink up and running. That's it! That's all you gotta do! Shame they don't teach these things in school.
Monday - Final two drawers installed. Minor electrical. Picked up some dimmers for the kitchen lights. Them puppies ain't cheap. M is cooking. Got a ways to go still, but being able to use the kitchen is like breathing after a good water boarding.
Friday - Oooh. It's been great. I haven't done crap since monday. It's no longer such a downer walking in here. But my vacation is over as tomorrow we begin our backsplash tile hunt. Lots of little details to finish. The temptation now is to slack off since the kitchen is actually usable. Must... resist...
