Kitchen Demo

Bright and early Saturday morning...before the bloody fingers, banged elbow, and stiff, achy joints...

ummm....yeah....

Refrigerator moved across the kitchen. I think this is better, but I'm still deciding whether I like it. Think it's our only option, though.

Hey Dan, you are supposed to be in bed and keeping your germs to yourself!! But we are all so excited - the doors open all the way! We can actually see what is in the freezer now, and get to it - as well as you can with a side-by-side. But this fridge is going to the basement as a second fridge, and will be replaced by french door stainless bottom freezer...

These cabinets did not survive their removal. Hoping the Re-Store will have 48" worth of base drawers or cabinets that will work. We're planning to paint all of the cabinets so they don't have to be an exact match - just close enough.

Cabinets coming down. Can't believe how much more spacious the kitchen feels!

Three layers down - love this linoleum. We may copy this pattern for the floor - like the idea of using an "original design". Also, found this old hydronic heater under the cabinet. We think there is one more under one of the cabinets that is staying. We are hoping to be able to move this over, since it is sitting where the range will go...

Done - for now. Just need to decide how far out to bring the knee wall. Now for hot showers, band-aids, lots of hand lotion, and bed. There was a time when this would have been a fairly easy day's work, and we would have gone out to dinner afterwards. But we were younger then, much younger than today..
