Things Are Happening...

Our brand new appliances have arrived!

But we don't have a place in the kitchen for them, yet.

(still waiting for our counter tops)

So into the garage they go!

The stove and dishwasher are still all wrapped up,

like Christmas presents.

We undressed the shipping packaging 

off the refrigerator and plugged it in.

So, what do you do with a nice, clean, reliable 

old refrigerator?

You clean it and ship it...

 out the back gate to our daughter's

home, just down the street.

Kimmy is so excited to have a

refrigerator in HER garage, right next to

her freezer.

Nathan, baby #6, is due in at the end of August.

Kimmy will have 4 boys and is in need of 

another refrigerator.

We now have a working refrigerator in the garage,

as opposed to on the back patio.

I still forget and go outside to get things

from the refrigerator.

I wonder how long it will take to reprogram my brain

to go to the garage!

Two more weeks

for the counter tops to be installed.

But who's counting! - ME!!

Kitchen Remodel Update and Summer Fun

Our kitchen remold is on hold for three weeks.

There is a building frenzy here in Idaho.

There is not enough workers to keep up with the demand.

So, no counter tops for awhile.

No sink!

No stove, refrigerator or 

dishwasher, either!

Here is a guessing game for you.

What do you think this is?

(answer at the end of the post)

We have our wood floors installed!

Love them!

 We have been living in zipper bags!

These are used to keep the 

dust out of other rooms.

They are very tricky to get through.

Both Tom and I have tripped into the next room.

We have them on the TV room and bedroom doors.

But it's Summer and it's beautiful out!

  I was over taking care of our grandchildren.

Craft time!

Silly masks!

Some kiddos just wanted to relax.

Others found other fun things to do.

Back to our remold.

This is how we have been washing dishes

 In the spare bathroom.

OK... time to get the answer .

It's our corner cupboard, without the counter top!

I promise more show and tell. 

as soon as there is more to show and tell.

What a Blessing!

Tom and I are having our kitchen and

 living room remodeled.

To do so, we had to move ALLLLL our 

kitchen items and living room furniture.

This is the view of our living spaces.

Living room on the left and kitchen on the right.

We have been blessed  to have great weather 

and 

a  h-u-g-e covered patio!

Living room

All our "real" furniture has been stowed

 away in our office and garage.

Kitchen

We have our coffee maker, lamp, cutting board and dishes,

set up under our bedroom window.

Love the smell of coffee being brewed 

from our bed!

It's a blessing that we can use our refrigerator on the patio.

We have all our meals outside.

Dining Al fresco. 

Another blessing!

Sneak peek of what is going on, inside...

I got to get a couple of good swings in before 

the guys took over!
