Renos offline, and online

Hello from my own personal IKEA warehouse… Otherwise known as my condo.

I had another 59 boxes delivered yesterday, and they’re all stacked in my bedroom. Why? Because my kitchen is in my living room.

Yes, you read that right…

My fridge is actually sitting beside my 52″ tv at the moment. That’s because it was sitting in the middle of the kitchen (as it wouldn’t fit into the space for the old fridge) and I needed to make room for the IKEA delivery guys to get the new boxes in the house.

And, those boxes will stay there for the next week or so, because this weekend, we are deconstructing the ghetto kitchen, and installing the new IKEA one that is currently residing in pieces in my livingroom.

Following along so far?

The 59 boxes that were delivered the other day consist primarily of the livingroom built-in wall unit, which will house Barry’s 46″ tv (which just happens to be the smaller version of my top-of-the-line Sharp) and everything else that won’t fit into the *1* closet we have for two people in 745 sf.

So, the wall unit will be set up most likely next weekend, and then I’ll be in urgent need of selling my 52″ tv and stand. It’s going to be a fabulous deal for anyone interested in a big, high-end tv! Comment or email me if you are interested!

And… for the online part of the renos — Thank you to everyone who sent me an email recently advising me of an issue with commenting on certain browsers. I’ll be flipping this site to a basic template until I can finish my custom template in short order. So, don’t freak out when you get here in the next few days, and it doesn’t look like my site Comments are important to me, not to mention, critical to the MEET n’ GREET, so I’ll make this change quickly!

Wish us luck with all the work ahead of us this weekend! And… also, what are you looking forward to, this long weekend?

Me? Besides the new kitchen being *mostly* completed (other than the countertops/sink which will be another few weeks) we’ve got our engagement party this weekend! YAY!
