Junk in the house is burying me....
Psychologically, anyways. I don't have much room to walk around, and I'd really prefer to have open, empty spaces to live in. Right now I can't even consider moving, because yes, Dad is planning on building me new cabinets in his shop. They put the roof decking on it today, and it's going up faster than I would have thought for August building.
It's damn hot outside. Even in the shade, the only air moving was hot air.
I do hope that Dad's gonna consider the kitchen plans that I drew up on my Home Designer software. I like the additions that I came up with, and I really think it will be good to eliminate the stupid stovetop poke-out in the middle of the room that impedes traffic. I guess somebody thought it would be a good idea to have physical separation in the middle of the kitchen and a dining area, but really, it's too small in there for that. The only useful table crowds everything anyway.
I did like to cook before I bought this house, but it's a nightmare to cook in that kitchen.
I do hope it's understood that when they start working on my kitchen (maybe this winter??? I hope???) I will need a new floor put down. (Dad made it sound like he was putting new cabinets in the old spaces today, but it needs a complete remodel, including hiding all the knotty pine planking with something modern and paintable.) I don't mind paying for all of the stuff needed... I just hate my house like this and it all starts with my hatred of the kitchen.
I also would like to go ahead and buy the pedestals for my washer / dryer set but who can I get to pick the machines up and set them on top? Right now all I do is pile clean laundry on top until it falls off, and I can't even reach the cabinets above when there's nothing on top. Hiding the detergent bottles isn't possible. So I might as well boost the machines and put storage space underneath. Could I persuade my brother and brother in law to do it for me?
It really bothers me that they might be putting in a ton of work on my kitchen, only for me to sell it as fast as I possibly can. This house isn't right for me. It's not in a neighborhood I like (another house fire today, by the way) and I'd really like to have a modern house with a master bath and new wiring.
