Thanks guys! Pulled the kitchen lowers out today, disconnected the plumbing/drain etc. Got all the tile out from under that and the rest of the breakfast area, then re-installed everything. The bin is almost full, can't believe there's that much shit in it. Also pulled down the drywall in the breakfast area/kitchen so it will be easier for me to re-route HVAC and also run new electrical for the pot lights, etc..

Also just had our latex mattress delivered about 20mins ago, going to crack a few cold ones and have a great sleep tonight.

Might as well tear the whole house down with the amount of work you're doing. Lol

It's gonna look awesome when it's done.

Pft, not even close to Wayne monies \:\) I've got a 50k reno budget (give or take).. Where we really saved was the kitchen, if her dad wasn't in the business the kitchen we're installing would be 50-60k all by itself. So I can understand when people can easily drop 100k into a reno, especially if they're hiring everything out (Which we aren't, we're doing most of this ourselves)

Thanks man, we're looking forward to it as well. Electrician buddy comes in Monday to wire up the kitchen so I've got a little bit of work to do before that (Take some additional drywall down, etc). LVL should be in early next week as well. The pain in the ass right now is just timing everything correctly. New floor needs to go down but I'm not going to drill holes for the plumbing for the old kitchen cause it's no where near where the new sink is going. And I can't not have a god damn kitchen so it's just back and forth with stupid decisions. I wish I could just rip the current kitchen out for good, install the floor, get my plumbing in place (somewhat) then leave it all bare until the new kitchen comes on the 16th.

Unless we use the sink in the laundry tub

Little update.. Got the 18ft LVL beam in the garage, that will be installed next week and I'll finally be able to rip down a lot of that side wall. Electrical is all run and ready to go (4 pendent lights, 12 pot lights + undercounter + cabinet lighting).. After the beam is in place I can start drywalling the ceiling (Going to insulate first for some sound proofing).. Kitchen should be here next week! Getting closer!





Some kitchen bling.



Our 60/40 sink.

Gf and her kids have been living with me since July, I thought that was common knowledge It was a little chaotic in the old house, this place has a lot more room.

Got a lot of work done yesterday..

Support wall in.



Cutting a hole through the subfloor in order to put the studs in that will support the LVL.



Old wall out.





New supports are in on each end and the LVL is in place. (Middle 2x6 in the pic is temporary and has been removed.)



Today I'm moving over all the HVAC for the upstairs master and the little ones room. (Pro tip, cut the subfloor and move it that way instead of trying to do it through the basement ceiling.. A lot easier and gravity isn't against you \:\) )

The header between the basement door and the original wall is also being removed and will be flush with the ceiling (so it will look like a doorway was never there). After that I can start on the drywall.

I can't believe you're actually living in the house through all of this, especially the Xmas tree. Isn't it dusty as hell?

Will be well worth the wait and hassle once it's all done.

Not much of a choice, gotta live somewhere \:\) The Xmas tree is fine, taking down that wall wasn't really messy. Removing the tile was the worst of it.

Moving over the ducting has been pretty easy so far, hopefully will wrap that up today.

Tear down the wall? Pfft, no problem. Move the ducting? No, problem. Tear the whole thing down and still live there with 3 kids? No problem. \:D I have enough problem living with 2 kids and not doing any renos. Lol.

The good thing is you don't have to worry about taking your shoes off when you come into the house! \:\)

Once I start the flooring and rip out the old kitchen for good, the kids are going to stay at their grandmas for a few days. That will let me shut everything off (gas, water, etc) and not have to worry.
