I’m really REALLY tired of being sick. I’m way too busy and impatient for this. And my nose hurts from all the blowing and wiping. Whaaaaaw!!. And yes, I’ll find some cheese to go with that whine. Oh…wait…the fridge is in the reno zone and I’ll have to put gear on to get the cheese.. I’m going in! AAAAAaaaaaahhhhhhh

(sorry . . . when you’re this sick for this long, somehow, you need to fantasize about battle)

We’ve been lucky so far with things that have to depend on studs, like pot lights, and now the exhaust pipe for the vent hood. The kitchen designer said that he miscalculated because he didn’t measure the length of the stove wall properly. If he had, the exhaust pipe would have landed right on a wall stud.

The kitchen designer is currently redoing the drawings, and should let us know tomorrow whether or not there is an issue. We’re told that there’s no problem. Originally, 3” of fillers were planned at both ends of the wall in the design that we likely don’t need anymore!

The plumbing is all roughed in, and ready for sink installation. The wires for the pot lights and the sockets are also all roughed in. The wire fish had a good day!

Randy says that less happened today than he wanted . . . but a lot happened. We’re still OK with the critical path, so we’ll see how the next few days go. Always a new day!

BTW, Chevey has found his favorite place in the house, and it’s also my favorite place, although mine’s bigger – he loves cuddling in the bottom of a table in the Sanctuary. I put a Chinese-inspired pillow in the bottom of the table, and he found it and made it his own for a few hours tonight.
