They're heeeeeere!

Yay! Our new cabinets have finally arrived. They look great in their cardboard boxes, all 30 or so of them. Now we need to get on the stick and get ready for installation. This is kind of complicated and involves moving electric outlets around, checking the floor height to see if the cabinets need to be raised vis-a-vis the new flooring, having the new appliances here so the cabinets can be fit to them, and removing the old cabinets and appliances. Oh, and finding a place for all of our kitchen crap. That last one could be tricky.

So where are we in this giant to-do list? Um, well, I did some of the dishes this morning. And Dave the Handyman is coming by either today or Friday to do some outlet moving and miscellany. The appliances are ordered and arrive on Friday allegedly. And that's it so far.

As an aside, isn't it funny how cats will do whatever they can to get your attention? While I've been typing, Nutmeg was in my lap trying to bite my hands (a charming habit). Then she got up on the desk and placed her little furry body in between the keyboard and monitor, directly in front of the screen. She just stood there and looked at me until I moved her out of the way. Pest. I love this cat, despite her annoying faults (like biting, trying to get into my dinner plate, and rubbing her gums on everything including beer and water bottles). Last night she ate a moth and I let her lick my face anyway.
