Life Reset Day 9

Today, being Tuesday, was Kitchen day.  Here's where I started, what a mess!

It's small but it has a cook who really doesn't like to clean up after herself!

This is where I ended today!

I did good!

Look fast it won't last!

I should tell you the story behind the newly sheet rocked wall.

While I was gone last Spring my Bonus Son mentioned that there was a small leak in the basement.  (There were actually TWO leaks and I knew about them, Had spoken to a plumber about fixing them.  He wasn't terribly interested in fixing them.) After I got home and settled I called a different plumber. so the leak I was reminded of was very small and easy to fix.  The other one was not.  In order to find and fix the leak the three tall cabinets that were along that wall and the sheet rock had to go.  My youngest son came up to help me-there is no way I could manage those cabinets alone-especially when two of the three were so wet they practically dissolved.  There is a four inch plastic drain pipe in that wall, where it shouldn't have be, and when they added the vinyl siding on the outside they punched NINE nails into the pipe.  The nails rusted fell out of the holes and began leaking.  It was a mess!  Had water damage people and the horridly noisy machines here for a week.  The kitchen floor had to be taken out and there is still a little fix needed in the basement.  It has been a LONG project, mostly due to my hip pain.  The Nashville duo came up last month and finished the wall to the current state.

On Friday, I have many errands to run (hopefully, I can do them all!  First to Lowes for paint chips to attempt to match the rest of the wall, then to look at cabinets, drop off some donations   and maybe some shopping not related to the kitchen.

Progress is being made, at long last.

Leaving you with rainbows!
