Dooooooom
I feel like Theoden, up on the ramparts of Helm's Deep. What is it he says again? "And so it begins."
Our house remodeling project starts today. We're gutting the kitchen and both bathrooms, taking out a big closet in the middle of the downstairs and also a bunch of walls. Supposedly the "demo" team will be working today--I don't know what I'm going to come home to. Dust and destruction, I expect. Maybe a dead orc or two.
Theo keeps talking about how they're going to bring in a wrecking ball.
Our house is fairly small (1700 square feet) and it's fairly old (built in 1926). The current (as of 8:00 this morning) layout is small kitchen, big underused closets, small dining room, tiny bathrooms with big unused closets next to them. The space feels compartmentalized and inefficiently used. So we're just ripping it all out and putting it back together so it's more open, with smaller closets. Plus the kitchen and its ratty old linoleum and flimsy cupboards and scary 40-year-old stove desperately needed updating.
We're going to try to camp out upstairs this weekend, then we go on spring break, and when we get back we're moving into a tiny house down the street for 4-6 weeks, until the project is done.
I will post some before and during pictures soon.
Also doom: I have had no coffee for the past three days. Ow, the caffeine headache.
