So we've started the kitchen re-do. We are currently sans kitchen, we in a weird way, translates into sans house. I never realized how central a kitchen is to one's existence. At least when you have to take EVERYTHING out of the kitchen and throw it in whatever tiny little space is available in your lilliputian house. This is what our dining room looks like right now...
Notice the bohemoth of a refrigerator tucked ever so subtly in the corner. Um. Yeah. And if you've seen the fall Pottery Barn catalog, you already know that draping plastic tarps over every surface possible is indeed all the rage right now in home decor.
If that's not enough, this is our living room...
Watching TV through the aforementioned fashionable plastic draping presents it's own problems as well. And as it is a suffocation hazard and covering all of Ethan's toys, we are dealing with a bit of a toy-shortage. That's actually a bit of relief because there is no room for Ethan to play with his toys, anyway. Sigh.
Oh, and the kitchen? Enjoy...
Where the sink used to be, day #1
No cabinets, no fridge, no counters, no microwave...
I don't even know what this IS...
Where the sink used to be, day #2...
This is the ceiling where the contractor found, joy of joys, fire damage. Apparently we can add "cooking" to the list of things the former house-owners/amateur do-it-yourselfers suck at.
Where's my food? Where's the kitchen??!! Oh, here it is...in our backyard.

Holy smokes (no pun intended regarding the fire damage)! You'll be SO PSYCHED when it is done, though. Hoping it all goes smoothly.
Oh my god! Just think how awesome it'll be when it's done. And lots of take out, which is never a bad thing. Totally love the tarps-- I sort of want to cover my floors with them, so I won't have to sweep anymore. Kidding. Sort of.
