Just bought our first house, tore down two walls, and are in the process of installing a brand new kitchen! Yippee!!!
It's been a crazy couple of weeks, but I am loving every minute of it!
Just wanted to share! :)

Thanks, Lynne,
Drywall can be a messy proposition. I'm debating whether or not to finish the drywall in my garage or sub it out. As I get older, I can separate from what I can do (in terms of potential - I can drywall, I can do landscaping, etc.) from what I should do. For instance, I recently hired someone to lay carpet in my basement. I could have rented all the equipment, but what that person did in 2 hours would have taken me all day.
However, economics do play a factor into it - I couldn't stand paying 100 bucks a month to have my grass mowed when I can spend less than a dollar on gas and do it myself. There are those neighborhoods, though, that cross that suburban line - just expensive enough that 90 percent of the neighborhood does not do their own grass. I guess that could be considered a dividing line economically.
I guess I'm just rambling too.
HOpe all is well and that you at least have fun doing it!

I am having fun - but very tired too!
We are still installing cabinets and all, but it's coming along nicely!
Looking good :) But where are the pics of the destruction workers?
uh... well, I work in my pajamas half the time. lol! My husband always laughs cuz I start working on projects like this during my coffee in the morning, and then end up showering at the end of the day. :) Most pics are of my hair standing up all over the place. So, no pics of me on the web!
There's some pics of my hubby in the /house directory. :)
Perhaps, I will have to post one when were done for you all to figure out which one is me like you did!
Here's the before and after photos:
