CHILL!
I admit, the title is a bit corny. Ok. Really corny. But the fridge arrived today! And if you notice from the photo above, the first cabinet is installed, albeit not completely in place. Progress is being made!

Floor-rida
It's down!
It took 6 hours of actual installation time to get the floor in place, which isn't too bad. The click together design makes it a snap (get it?).
In other matters, we were talking the other night about how having to move all the kitchen stuff and tools in the other rooms of the house makes us feel like we're living in some horrific episode of "Hoarders". Yuck.

Actually the color is "Koi". Bright, yes. It ain't done yet so hold yer judgment!
Lights are installed too! Three cans above what is to be the sink and two more CREE LED cans to complete the set.

This paint ROCKS!
This TEEEEENY half-pint of Martha Stewart paint covered this wall with one coat!
Fascinating. And relatively cheap! B did apply a second coat after buying a quart just for good measure.

Optimus Primer
There's not a whole lot to report on today, other than the ceiling being primed (and it don't look too shabby, I gotta say) and B's trip to Ikea to return the 18" cabinets for a 15" one and accessories.
One issue that's yet to be resolved (and needs to be tout-de-suite) is the color for the kitchen. It needs repainting terribly. The foyer and downstairs bathroom have their colors already. It's the poor kitchen that's being left out.

If you're making Martinis in your bathroom:
A. You have a problem that requires a 12-step program to help resolve
or
B. You're using your God-given ability to adapt to your environment
Personally, I'll vote for B.
There's a trip to Ikea planned. Yup. Trading out a couple of cabinets that are too big. Sigh.
Could the dust be settling?
The sheetrock is up and now the joint work has been completed, short of sanding down a couple of high spots. Hopefully this will mean the death to dust, at least as far as this project is concerned. So the next steps appear to be painting the ceiling, followed by painting the walls, then floor installation, then cabinets, appliances, and a great big sigh of relief.
Is the light at the end of the tunnel an oncoming train?
