Kitchen Remodel, D-Day -1


And we reach a time of home ownership where it is time (or past time) to remodel the kitchen. Having lived in the house for nearly 20 years, the kitchen was in fairly good shape when we moved in. It offered ample storage and was a big change from apartment living and duplex living, plus it is ours. Well, it's time to get a new kitchen with modern cabinets, LED lighting, a hood over the stove, nice counter top and stainless steel sink. This is all just weeks away.

So here we are, demolition day - 1, meaning, tomorrow the guys show up to remove the cabinets, move the stove in the garage, and the refrigerator to the living room which is now our kitchen. Each cabinet has been emptied, the pantries are bare. All nick-nacks removed. Even in the family room which had the big tv, DVR, filing cabinets, work area, modem, router, lamps, dinner table, futon, pictures on the walls, it's all stored away for the month.

Tonight I'm typing this from the bare family room looking at a kitchen that will be gone tomorrow. The typing on the computer keys echo's in this room. It is that bare. It starts at 8:00 tomorrow morning.

Addition to this post, the photo shows how the kitchen looks after demolition.
