Another week. another delay ....


The kitchen work is on slow motion now.  It seemed we had finally gotten to a place of progress - but you know what they say - one step forward, two backward - did I say two -- make that four.

We have reached a point where we are waiting .... waiting .... waiting .... for the counter guy.

Scheduled for Monday, we received an email.  The Fabricator - the craftsman that measures, cuts, and installs the counter - had his saw break.  And so, now we wait for the saw to be fixed.  Maybe this week - and of course that means everyone else that follows - the tiler for the back splash, the plumber, the electrician and the painter - has to be delayed as well.  Will the plumber's plumb  break next?

But there is progress to report.  Not enough to have allowed us to unpack, or to cook the Hanukkah meal that we invited 10 people to ---- but thanks to my mother's kitchen next door still came off perfectly.  Lots of latkes for everyone!

Yeah! Refrigerator back in kitchen and ice maker working.

Microwave installed, oven still missing.

A view toward our sink - window still missing.


And some of the knobs we brought from our trip to South Africa with our good friends Jennifer and Charles Brennan -
