I'm posting this for the sole purpose of making everyone feel better about themselves at my expense.

As soon as I get my ass up off this chair, I'm beginning my kitchen remodel.

Here's the "Whoa, I'm not THAT bad" part for you.

I have had the entire new kitchen in our basement for 8 years. And I do mean entire!

Double 30" conv. wall ovens, downdraft open grill cooktop, convention/microwave, dishwaher, disp., sink, faucet, ducting, lighting, flooring, Romex, countertops, and all 17 cabinet boxes precut, labelled and stacked. It's all still there, in it's warranteeless glory.

Like in the old days (17th/C), when I would buy a new fountain pen as an incentive to catch up on correspondence, I just bought Rockwell's version of the Fein MultiMaster to start removing the sheet flooring.

6 months of take-out, here we come. Wait! I have tomorrow off, too! Afterall, it's already 2 o'clock.

Always call the place you live a house. When you're old, everyone else will call it a home.
