Wish Came True—Day 39

My wish for a sink, running water in the kitchen, the dish washer connected, and the refrigerator delivered and connected before the weekend...and it happened!  We actually have a fully functioning kitchen.  This morning around 7:30 the first work crew started showing up.  They had contacted the appliance place to have the refrigerator delivered and they were coming to do the plumbing that needed to be done.  And, all those were not the easiest tasks...the old refrigerator was hard to get out of the kitchen...they had to figure out how to take it apart to get it out.  They got it out and then put it back together and put it in the family room so I could transfer things easily.  They "say" that it will go out the last two doors without a problem...time will tell!  The new fridge has our food in it now and the old is empty.  The dishwasher has been run for its first time.  And, the sink/faucet is working.  We still need hardware put on the doors and drawers and some shelves for the pantry and some adjusting of the doors on the cabinets.  Then a crew will come in and do paint touch ups and a couple of other things.  After that I "think" that the kitchen will be done from what the workers need to do.  Then they can go on with the floors in the bathrooms and sunporch/laundry room and finish the fix on the outside to make sure that our leak is stopped.  There are things that I still need to do...like order the honeycomb blinds and a few other things to help with the organizing of the cabinets...but it will soon be just things that we need to do.

Woody delayed our grocery shopping till this afternoon until it looked like the workers were close to finished...that way I could get things transferred to the new refrigerator and be ready to put away the food he bought when he got back.  This morning he ran errands with his friend who has no transportation.

This evening was the culmination of a week of Kid's Music Camp at our church.  Kathy and Abigail were two of the leaders and Isaac and Joseph were campers.  Tonight they sang the songs and did the hand motions that they learned during the week. I will end the blog with a few pictures of tonight's program.
