Our new kitchen will be delivered on March 22, so we’ve begun to rip out the old and get the place ready for installation. It’s a bit of a tricky planning process because we want to minimize the amount of time that we are without a kitchen while still leaving enough “cushion” in the timetable for unexpected issues…like these bloody tiles. I bought a stone chisel and thought that I’d take a few whacks at them to see how hard they would be to get off the wall. The first layer of white tiles was easy…but the ugly 1960’s “tropical forest” green layer is stuck on like bad hair to Donald Trump. The grey that you see in this picture is the cement that I was unable to get off the wall using the traditional “elbow grease” method. So next week I’m off to our local rental center to get a jack-hammer. The neighbors are going to love that!
While I was swinging the hammer, Beth was sanding the front windows to get them ready to paint. Maybe one of these days we’ll actually get curtains.
