Day 32 March 18


Picked out a counter top sample
and some paint colors while I was
back home with Mom. 
David and I were waiting for this day, cabinets were to come! Yes, we’re not quite ready to install them, but we were still excited to see how they looked. But once 5 o’clock rolled around and no delivery truck ever came, we were a little confused. I had cleared a second spot in our garage and laid some plastic in preparation for the boxes, but cleared it was left by the end of the night. We later received a call telling us our delivery had to be rescheduled due to the truck breaking done. We’ll just have to hold our excitement until Wednesday when they’re supposed to be delivered.

During the day I hung a few of the small pieces of drywall that went between the mudroom and the kitchen. David came home and we then attacked the dividing wall. We were able to complete the kitchen side but still have the mudroom side to finish. That should be easy work considering all it’ll take is two large sheets and no outlets to cut! We staged three chairs for our seating at the peninsula to evaluate where to install the countertop brace brackets. After measuring it looks like we’ll need to add a few supports between the studs for the brackets to mount onto. David got a little antsy and started filling in a few of the screw holes with mud, but that job will have to wait until tomorrow. Sad news for the day, I went to clean my glasses on my shirt and they snapped in two. After trying electrical and packing tape, I had to call them goners :o(
