Rough Week

Man, it has been a rough week getting back into the swing of normal life! Especially when I'm not sure that I'm really enjoying my "normal" life right now. My house is in chaos, as it has been for 8 months, and my job is increasingly mundane every day it seems. When times like this come in my life, I know that there is something that is coming. It usually me getting my own butt in gear and tackling whatever it is that is irritating me. Right now, I fear that the house is first on my list. Fortunately, our in-the-8th-month-of-remodeling kitchen will have countertops installed on Friday. This means that even though there will be finishing touches that will need to be done (like baseboards, cabinet hardware, cabinet molding and toekicks, etc), that the kitchen will be a huge step toward being functional and I will be one huge step from having to wash dishes in my bathroom! The last thing that would need to be done is the sink plumbing, which would include hooking up the dishwasher and garbage disposal. I'm so excited! Anyway, this will allow me to move all the kitchen stuff that is spread across the house into the kitchen and start to actually unpack and settle in. It is about time! We've only been living in the house for 8 months now! I'll make sure to post a picture of the kitchen with the new countertops after they are installed.
