The first picture is the kitchen when we bought this townhouse. It didn't look too bad but the garbage disposal had leaked and the sink cabinet was a mess, storage was very limited and there were only 3 drawers, so I was going to put in an IKEA kitchen like I did in our other townhouse. However after putting together a couple of IKEA furniture pieces, it became apparent I can no longer put together another kitchen due to carpel tunnel. Thus the challenge to find a quality kitchen at an IKEA price. On Monday we ordered cabinets, on Thursday a non-profit group came and removed the old kitchen cabinets etc. and 7:30 AM Friday the cabinet installer arrived. The install was completed at 2 when the granite installer arrived to measure. Monday they installed the granite followed by the plumber and by 6 PM we had a complete kitchen. Yes there are a few items yet to do like painting, new light fixtures and new outlets to better blend with the granite but those are ease items to finish the job.

Thursday morning after a very quick removal of the old kitchen. |
Instead of working on the kitchen today though, it was ceiling painting day for the living room and dining room. The previous owners were not very careful while painting walls and the entire perimeter of almost every room has wall paint on the ceiling. It is amazing how much nicer the rooms look without the wall color smeared on the ceiling.

Early Tuesday morning - there is no blue paint in the house. |
