Kitchen Empty


As you can see we have finally got the kitchen empty.My oven and microwave are in the office, the fridge in the dining room, and our dining room table is in the living room. So for cooking we are down to the microwave and BBQ, which isn't so bad in this hot weather right now. It is just that all my groceries are spread all over the office and our bedroom, so to make a meal takes great searching. And I do dishes in the bathtub, but I have got paper plates so that there aren't many dishes. Now the next phase begins, patching all the holes in the wall and moving light switches around and starting on the great"light island" as Trevor calls it for the Kitchen ceiling. We also had a short fierce battle with mould that was behind the kitchen sink. We removed it while the kids were sleeping because it was so black that even Trevor and myself got headaches immediately upon removing the sink cabinet. We just cut out all the drywall around the area and then just wash down the plastic behind the drywall with a bleach solution. We knew the mould was there we just didn't know how bad it was. It sure feels good to get it out. All this and no injuries!!(so far but the reno isn't over yet) .
