We're Making Progress...

It may not look like much progress was made in the past 2 days, but we ran into some snags.... so things took a little longer to get rolling than anticpated. Luckily pipes were rerouted and vents were heightened, so nothing our contractor couldn't handle. My response for when he tells me there may be an issue has consistently been, "Don't worry Mike, I know you'll figure it out!" Accomplishments in 2 days:

1. New lighting in hallway and kitchen: It's funny how everyone told me you will never stick to your original budget for the kitchen. I was determined to do this renovation exactly at my magic number of what I was willing to spend. Then.... the electricians show up and you begin to think "What if we did recessed lighting in the hallway? Oh... and what if we did under cabinet lighting? Etc....
2. Sheetrock is up on the kitchen ceiling.

Doesn't seem like much, but because of the little snags, things were off to a slow start. The electricians are here now to finish putting in the recessed lighting now that the sheetrock is up and we should have our pantry cabinet and over the fridge cabinet up today. Fingers crossed!
