The day I have been waiting for finally arrived. We put the countertops in! Well, once again, I use the term "we" very loosly. My brother (also named Mike) came over and he and Matt cut the counters and hauled them upstairs (our kitchen is on the second level of our house). Our neighbor, David, came over, unsuspectingly, at the perfect time. It was definitely a three man job getting those mammoth pieces of rock up those stairs. But, alas, they made it! Then the magic happened-- we rubbed in the mineral oil and there they were, a thing of beauty (thanks Mike and David!). You may be thinking to yourselves-- hey these dummies didnt put in a sink. Well dont you worry, the white piece of paper there on the counter is the template for the place to cut out our new sink. Can't wait-- but I am not going to bother dusting for the thousandth time until that is finished! On a sour note, The @#$% Home Depot broke a chunk out of our custom ordered door and now we have to wait another 2 weeks for a new one. One last thing, check out the amount we have spent. We are seriously cutting things close! Can we stay in budget???
