No kitchen photos to share because my camera is giving me
fits, but I wanted to share some random thoughts
regarding the remodel.
Every morning I wake up in the same episode of
This Old House (minus the new england accents),
thankfully it is one of my favorite shows. Matt doesn't share
my sentiments. He claims he is allergic to the dust, but I'm
pretty sure he is just allergic to the mess. He and Max have
relocated to the cottage and he is commuting to Traverse City.
Reggie and I are hanging tough. Reggie LOVES the mess and
the guys who come and work on the house. I have never seen
a dog fascinated by power tools before. He hangs with the guys
every morning for about 15 minutes before I leave for work and
he eats them up. When I walked in the kitchen this morning
his little nose was about three inches away from Jeremy, who was
cutting a 2x4 with a circular saw. Reggie's eyes were shut
because of all the dust it was kicking up, but he was
not at all scared of the saw. So funny.
We haven't run into any major problems yet. Electrician began
rewiring today and drywall is slated for Friday. We should be
able to lay tile early next week. Keep your fingers crossed!
I've attached a photo I took of Matt on the slopes a couple
of weeks ago. Only three weeks (give or take) left in
the ski season. It's been a good one. Matt took
home a ton of "gold medals" in his ski league. He says it
doesn't mean anything, but I'm proud of him.
Gotta run!

Your story about Reggie and the saw was hilarious. Got a good laugh out of it! Too funny.
I'm glad you're excited about your kitchen. I know it's going to look amazing. Can't wait to see the finished product! Getting your kitchen redone is such a huge under taking though. I'm sure there's dust everywhere and you're tired of eating out.
Such a good picture of Matt! It's awesome that you guys take such advantage of where you live -- skiing, snow boarding, going out on the lake. You really do live in paradise. Not a bad deal.
Also very cool that you're doing weight training. That's awesome. I heard that eating a banana after your work out helps minimise the acid that builds up in your muscles, which is what causes the soreness. Since I have barley worked out in the last five or six weeks, I'm not claiming to be an expert though. So, let's be clear about that!
Good luck with the kitchen this weekend! That's cool you will be able to get your hands on some of the work -- I know your color will be perfect. (Just like you.) Can't wait to see the updated pictures. Have fun and enjoy!!
