April 17, 2014 – Kitchen Countdown: D-Day minus 4
D-Day (Demolition Day) is fast approaching. Only four more days until the kitchen
cabinets are wrenched from the walls, the floor is torn up, and the island is
hauled downstairs, where it will be repurposed as a worktable in my
studio. The packing is about 95%
completed.
Elliott is still making lists
non-stop – items to purchase, deliveries to schedule, etc. Although I was hoping he would turn over
these responsibilities to the contractor, he continues to micro-manage the
project. This has necessitated daily
visits to Home Depot, where I am becoming much too well acquainted with the
plumbing aisle.
During today’s shopping spree at Home Depot, Elliott was
like a kid in a toy store, especially when he got to the lumber section. In the photo above, he is selecting a piece
of wood called a ledger board. Please
don’t ask me why it has that name, or what he intends to use it for. He was just thrilled to be handling the wood. Elliott never uses cologne, but if he did,
his scent of choice would be Eau de Sawdust.
