In one week
4 adults and 4 children, sharing a home undergoing a kitchen remodel
Old cabinets ripped out
Old range gone
Cooktop gone
Countertops demo-ed
Tile smashed
New unfinished cabinets sanded, stained, sealed, sanded, shellaced, rubbed, half shellaced, rubbed, and waxed
And, installed
New range in
New sink in
New faucet hardware in
Disposal reconnected
Dishwasher reconnected
One person fallen with bronchitis, sinusitis, flu
Another with vomit bug
One trip to Pediatric ER
Yet another with sore throat/cough that won’t quit
And 2 (my mom and dad) graced with love and keep-going-ness above the normal human capacity of call of duty, and to such degree that I’m sure I’ll never be able to live up to it.
