Day 10

Insulation for the exterior walls was installed today as well as the vent for the range.

Tore up from the Floor Up!

It may not look like there have been a lot of changes but but all of the flooring has been removed as well as the ceiling.

In the old kitchen the floors weren't leveled. Once you got to the back portion of the kitchen the floors slanted. Every so often we would kick over the dogs' water bowl by mistake and water would go rushing towards the back wall. Well, once they removed the floor we found out that the floors were actually pretty leveled.

It turns out that the kitchen may have been split in to two rooms at some point. The front portion had more flooring than the back. Somewhere along the line, during some renovation, some one made the decision just to continue to lay flooring over the entire surface without leveling the back with the front, thus we had a slight incline. I'm glad to find out that we didn't have a structural issue as I'd originally feared.

Anyone up for a little dumpster diving? Look at all of the crap... and that's the second load!

What a Difference a Day Makes

Wow! What a difference a day makes.

Day 1 - I leave, there's a kitchen. I return, only walls.

Day 2 - I leave, there are walls. I return, no walls.

Check out (no, really CHECK out) this schizophrenic floor. Someone please tell me that these two patterns weren't present at the same time, during the same era, as a part of the same kitchen.

• I get the black and red pattern. They probably had a white kitchen to go with that floor.


• What could they possibly have had to match the green and yellow monstrosity on the right??????? Uh, let me see... banana colored appliances and shag carpet in the dining room, right?
