Renovation diaries. Chapter 1,308.
Renovation goes and slow downs. One step forward two steps back — isn’t that what they say?
I pulled up after dropping the kids to school — on time — to see the Lowes truck in our yard.
That could only mean one thing.
APPLIANCES.
They brought in the cooktop and the range. Then after measuring, they needed to bring the refrigerator in through the front door.
And look.
It fits!
Things were really happening now.
Or were they?
Got back into our little apartment out back to see that husband had called.
Seems after leaving five messages for the counter top installation company — someone called him back and delivered the good news.
The earliest the counter tops could be installed was the third week of December.
“So I canceled the order,” he said.
What?
A little hard to make a turkey sandwich on this? But I’m willing to try.
No sink there yet.
Well, after I talked him down off the ledge, hopefully, he’ll realize there is no way I could find someone, or pick out new counter tops and have them done any sooner. Or could I?
Not that I don’t understand his frustration.
I’m having to readjust my thinking. The last thing this little apartment needs is any more clutter.
And a tree and swags of twinkling lights and garland would definitely be classified as clutter in this small space.
So that’s my Monday so far.
I’m concentrating on the step forward. How about you?
