Mission: Renovation

I haven't had the chance to take a picture with my camera since last time but I used trusty ol' Dbrickashaw Phonason.  He's great guy, super focused. =)

So Mission: Renovation, Appliance Edition (with a sneak peek at the counter tops).  The dishwasher was almost a dish-aster (muahaha) because the tiles were so high, a result of the cement board and cement.  The reason we got a new dishwasher at this time was because we were warned that to change the d/w after the counter tops were put in would be a big deal so if we were ever planning on changing it, might as well do it now.  My dad took the bait.  However, the countertops were put in on Monday.  The d/w came on Wednesday.  What was the point? The very nice delivery/installation man huffed and puffed and moaned and groaned about how hard it was to squeeze the d/w into the tiny hole (TWSS) but finally after some tinkering, he got it in (again, TWSS).  The final product?


Voila!

Have you seen the final Friends episode where Monica and Chandler only signed up for one baby but came home with two?  Well, when my parents went out d/w shopping, they came back with an oven as well.  She's a beaut and I can't wait to start cooking on it.  A week and a half spent using the microwave and fridge in my brother's room has me hankering to try out some new fancy schmancy recipes...dinner party, anyone?


I'm guessing there'll be a new microwave soon.

Yes, folks, this mission is winding down to a halt.  Just a few more touch-ups to the bathroom and putting all the furniture back and we're back to living in a house, not a construction zone.

Side-note: I just heard a fantastic, little love song today.  I can't get it out of my head and I don't want to.  It puts me in such a good mood and every time I hear it I think of my bf.  (Oh CB, you put the bf in barf!) Whatever, it's the truth.  Please, indulge yourself.



MISSION: ALMOST DONE
