Fat Thursday

Let’s get this out of the way first: cabinets are here. Oh, and so is the dishwasher. And the pedestal sinks. We’re the number one delivery location in Pasadena today!

Cabinets

The kitchen got some much needed work, too. Behold:

Kitchen Window New plumbing

And this is early in the day. Since these pictures were taken, insulation is now filling the exterior wall and ceiling and I’ve crawled through the rafters into the attic… twice. Why? I think the question should be, “why not?”

In addition to all that (and the installation of our shower door, see below), a lot of door casing went in, drywall went up in the laundry room, and the water heater was moved. It was a dicey move, since it jiggled the ancient wire box that serves as our telephone hub, but your humble narrator was able to re-attach everything and place a few well-timed calls.

Dumpster

Oh, and the pile of trash was Dumpstered™. And through it all, Indiana perservered:

Defending the Gates

With a squirrel in one’s mouth, she can accomplish anything!

If you look closely, you can see the plumbing was started today! Hopefully, it will pass inspection tomorrow…

Indiana is sitting in front of where the new shower will be located.
