D(emolition) Day Approaches

The final design decisions are being made. Jule was able to find the cork in the color I've been looking for, and we settled on a design for the tile backsplash. I added the microwave I needed to my order at Factory Direct and decided against installing a wine refrigerator. I need to go to Home Depot or Lowe's tomorrow and pick out the two door styles. I still need to get the lights and the small TV. After that I think I will be done with the selection process.

I've been working on getting my kitched cleared out all day today (with short breaks to mow up what I hope is the last of my leaves and later, to swim). It's a good thing that I had about half of it done from when I thought I was going to be starting the last time, because I am tired of clearing out my kitchen. It's appalling how much grease was floating around the air in my unvented kitchen. Yuk!

But, clear it out, I must as the contractors are supposed to start Tuesday (November 30) on the demolition. I'm a little apprehensive as I haven't really talked to Bob (McCartney) about the details. Julie told me the 30th, but aside from emptying out the cabinets, I don't really know what to expect.

I'm also wondering what I'm going to get regarding some of the specific cabinets. We had talked at one time whether I wanted an 8" or 5" spice rollout, and did he remember that I wanted my shelves to pull out? I've also been agonizing as to whether I should send back my sink and exchange it for a black one. If I'm not careful, I'll end up deciding by not deciding.

Stress and anticipation. D-Day, D-Day's a coming!
