As I mentioned last post, we had a raccoon that wanted to live in our attic. Herbie spent several days last week dealing with making sure it was gone and getting roofing estimates. We are long overdue for a new roof and gutters. We made our selection and they were supposed to do the roof yesterday (Monday). Whatever happened and that didn't. They finally showed up today and will finish tomorrow. Gutters will happen the first week of April. Turns out we had some rotten boards because of the old gutters so it was indeed a necessity.
Herbie is supposed to be helping at church getting the building ready for our 50th Birthday party. He's been spending a day here and there as he can. As I also mentioned, the church has to replace 2 air conditioners so he's been helping get estimates on that.
With all that happening, progress is still being made on the kitchen. The pantry has been framed and the pantry door came in today. The pantry door is one of my indulgences. I just couldn't deal with a regular door so I ordered a cute one at triple the cost of a boring one. I'll post a picture when we get it. Anyway, Herbie has done an awesome job of framing out the pantry.
We have to move the security console. You can see it in the above picture. We don't want it in the pantry so we moved it to beside where the desk will be. That caused another couple of holes to have to be cut in the wall (like we need a reason).
So, old intercom system is gone, new security system console is installed ( not in this picture).
After attempting to sand the walls, Herbie decided that it would be best to cover them with new sheet rock. The sheet rock for the pantry has been purchased, the door will be here tomorrow. We're ready to move forward. AFTER a trip to our time share in North Redington Beach Florida. Vacations MUST come first.
