After firing our last hired help, we had another person come to the house last night and gave us an estimate that was a lot better than the last, and hired him and his boys. He also installs carpet and his prices are much better, in case we decide to go with carpet in the living room.
My husband....sheesh. He is already talking about doing more work, he's that excited to get things repaired and looking spanking new again.
I have a lot of work cut out for me today, including some kitchen painting that the last person did not do. I also have another person who does good painting work and doesn't charge an arm and a leg lined up. We also have a few family and friends that can come over and help re-install the counter top and cupboards.
My only problem is finding places in the house to move more stuff out of the kitchen. I have no more room in the living room ha ha!
Today, thankfully it's an all-in-one crock pot dinner. Once I have that done, it's a get-er-done day for me. Rain is on the way, so it will be good to be busy indoors today.

We are in the middle of a major kitchen renovation too. However, we have a friend who is also our trusted handy man. He is doing everything for us and his crew. He knows how we want things done and he always asks us how things look. He loves having our approval. He is a very honest man and we don't know what we would do without him.
We are staying in a hotel while they are doing our renovation so we can stay out of their way. We still oversee things and are there but we don't get it their way. I have been doing some posts on our blog and some videos on our YouTube channel of hotel Cooking. All I have is an instant pot and air fryer. We are doing good with meals. You should check them out. Our channel is Keeper of the Home at 4D Farms.
I have pics posted on our blog as tp how our renovation is going. It's a slow process but getting there. We gutted out the whole thing and started again.
Good and honest help is hard to find these days but dear hubby has also worked for three months but the last 40 days straight of 7 12's and is getting exhausted just to be able to do this. I couldn't be more grateful and appreciative for his determination and dedication to this project and our home. I make sure to take care of him when he returns. Even though it's just a meal I three together in an air fryer. Lol.
Keep hanging in there, a new kitchen will be worth it. 👌
