Day 426 of our kitchen renovation – Ok, maybe not 426 but when you are shoved into a living space the size of a Children’s Place dressing room- with 2 children… and every kitchen gadget you’ve ever known- just piled- Day 6 starts to feel like day 426 really quickly; Add in your hubby leaving you in the mess to go live it up in paradise for ‘business’ and take it from me, chances are good that you will find yourself rocking in a corner (if you can find one) hugging a bottle of Mommy Juice wine (if you can find one).
Thankfully we are 90% done. As of today, my kitchen looks like this-
Which believe me, is practically a room you would find in Windsor Castle compared to the hot mess it replaced which was was very obviously professionally installed by the previous owner with electrical tape- leaving us with moldings that fell on our heads on numerous occasions.
And as we approach seeing the final product, I find myself beginning to say things like “This was totally worth it” … or “It wasn’t too bad”. Hindsight is evil like that. It’s like that point after you give birth, when can’t exactly recall the pain and you think- “I can totally do this 3 more times!”
Thankfully, just last week I taped this video blog to remind myself of exactly what this Road to Kitchen Remodeling was truly like. I recommend you watch it too and heed my warning- no matter how sexy a fancy new kitchen sounds.
