Can't Stand the Heat, Part II

The old, ugly kitchen is gone, daddy gone. The boys took a SawzAll to the horrible cabinets and countertop and cut them to pieces. The wood is piled in the yard, and is waiting for removal in the big ass dumpster that should be delivered in the next day or so. They have been replaced with nice, clean white cabinets, and the kitchen now looks amazing. There have been several real estate professionals who have looked at this and have been blown away by the change. The best part, these cabinets were sitting in the basement of my office building, so the ultimate cost to me was zero dollars. I am still looking at getting this bear on the market in another two weeks. Next, we start working on getting the walls ready to paint and the floor ready to be replaced.

The biggest problem was getting the plumbing straightened out. Nothing was done correctly, and the additional expense was somewhat unexpected.

There is a brief hiatus in the work, which is a consequence of the need for the electrician to straighten out a few wiring issues.
