Kitchen Remodel Day 20

Call it persistence.



Five phone calls to the "floor guy" explaining that the seam in the flooring isn't right.

AND, there's a new lump on the bathroom threshold.

Oh, by the way, we're leaving in 3 days.

All I do is leave a message.

The store opens at 10.  I left a message there.

Or I can call his cell phone direct.  And leave a message there.

Well, I'd just decided it was WAY past lunchtime, when I hear a rap, rap, rap, rap at the front door.

It's the floor guys!

Now the seam is fixed.

Notice the pile of "things to be installed" in the corner is getting smaller.

And the quarter round is installed.

They used a lot more glue, and the bathroom threshold seems to be fixed.

They were here about a half hour.

Amazing.

Maybe I should track "elapsed days".

I haven't heard from the stove guy.

This is the way I cook on my stovetop because my burner grates are getting new porcelain.

Since October 11th.

Good thing I've learned how to cook rice in the microwave!

My oven doesn't work because the oven knob is getting refurbished.

Hence the toaster oven in the pass through.

Notice the pineapple/mandarin orange arrangement in the window.

My wonderful neighbor brought it over as a gluten-free Christmas gift!

To be eaten immediately, as the pineapple was very ripe.

Merry Christmas!
