Last December we had our house foundation stabilized with piers being driven to rock and then the house jacked back up level. Due to settlement over time with our foundation sitting on clay we had developed cracks in the drywall and doors that didn't open and shut. Now that we are stable we hired a contractor to repair the wall cracks and realign the doors. The doors are all done and working properly, The cracks in the computer (my office) room have been repaired along with new flooring and new paint. We also hired the same contractor to remodel our kitchen. Jo has never been fond of all the very dark cabinetry.
Before we left on our March trip we had ordered the cabinets and now they are finished and our contractor is coming back on next Monday to begin the restoration. Here are three pictures of our kitchen as a "before" documentation.
Over the past several days Jo and I have been clearing out the drawers and shelves. I picked up some moving boxes to store "stuff" in and the only place to store them is Phyllis' room. She said that she plans to get back home around Christmas time so I hope we can get it cleared out by then. Here are a couple of pictures of that storage including the dining room area.
Now here is a picture of the kitchen after all that "stuff" has been moved. Since this picture I have removed the towel rack from under the cabinet.
Stay tuned.
