Well, it certainly seems that way! Our renovations are moving slower than slow...were stalled for awhile but picked up again.
Our kitchen has been sitting there just waiting to be filled with cabinets. Unfortunately, our first cabinet guy took our money and ran. We paid him about $5000 to start and then we never heard from him again. What's worse is that he was Lad's friend. Action has been taken so hopefully, we have a resolution soon. With most of our cabinet funds tapped out, we had to go and look around for another avenue. We finally decided on these cabinets and hired their guys to install both the cabinets and countertops. Ours is a basic kitchen - no real bells and whistles but it cost an arm and a leg so when they say kitchen renovations are expensive, they are right! But, here's our kitchen now. The cabinets and countertops was completed in 3 days. After some tweaking, we're finally satisfied. Now, onto the tiny-detail asthetics and the appliances!
When it rains it pours?? You bet! We wanted a garbage disposal but found out that we needed to change the pipes outside which entailed breaking the concrete. (
more cha-ching!) Coincidentally by blessing and blessings alone, our backyard development started up again. They were digging trenches for our drainage pipes and were breaking some of our concrete to lay pipe so we were able to break the concrete for the garbage disposal too. The plan is to lay more concrete on the side of the house so it probably worked out really well. While we're waiting for the concrete job to start, they did plant grass on the bottom tier. It may not look like much now, but I'm assured that my bermuda grass will be in after about a month. Yay!!
