It has taken quite a while to make a new post. The changes that occurred each day over the last two weeks were small and slightly incremental, but they've finally added up. Most of the appliances have been installed and we've pretty much moved back in. Over the last day or so we've been cleaning the kitchen and all of the other affected areas in the house. The old refrigerator has been taken out of the living room and was donated to someone that Alan knew.
What do I like about the new kitchen? Everything! It's too hard to pick a favorite aspect. The fridge is cool. I can select from crushed or whole ice and get filtered water. The beverage center is AWESOME... it can hold 126 cans of soda! We now have a double sink and it's nice and deep. The dishwasher whispers... you barely hear it. So many things to enjoy.
There are three remaining items: the installation of the range, the staining of the cabinet trim, and the installation of the kick plate for the dishwasher. The range will arrive on Saturday. Apparently they kept pushing back the release date of the range we wanted. The start of ship was in July, then August. Now it's September 22nd. So we opted to go with a different model. Man, if we kept changing ship dates like that in our industry, our customers would have our heads.
Stay tuned. More posts are on the way. By the way, if you didn't know this, clicking on any of the pictures on the blog blows them up in their own frame so that you can really see the pictures well.
