Kitchen update
As I mentioned previously, our new cabinets arrived last Friday. Prior to that I spent some time destroying the remainder of our lower cabinets. Getting the sink out was the most difficult task, but Anne helped me and we got it.
Not having a kitchen sink kinda sucks, I don't recommend it for everyday living.
Dora is skeptical.
Our new cabinets arrived, and there are a lot of them, most of them are currently residing in the dining room waiting to be installed. They look great and the finish matches with the island we previously bought really well, so we were happy about that.
In with the new.
Last night we hung a couple of the upper cabinets, it was a fun and exciting time of holding these things up on the wall and screwing them into the wall studs, yay! Making sure they lined up on the face was the most annoying, since the wall certainly isn't even. Now that we've got a few under our belt, I'm hoping the rest will be a bit easier, or at least require fewer trips to the basement (or Home Depot) to get some tool I didn't have upstairs.
Two down, eight to go.
Way to go. Im proud of your abilities!

I can tell it’s going to look great when you finished! Nice!

We’re pushing to have them all in place by then end of Sunday so we can be measured for a counter top and get that (and a sink) installed ASAP.

Looks like your efforts will pay off handsomely.
