kitchen remodel 44

We got the curtains put up last week. They were a little disappointing (more to Cindy than me) because they looked like they would be blue and white, but the white is actually more grey than we'd refer. I think they'll be fine. Cindy is still contemplating a replacement. And needs to steam the wrinkles out.

I finally got the exhaust over the range hooked up. I could never get the new duct connected with the existing one. Finally, watching a video, I realized I had a crimping tool, and could crimp the end of the duct so the other one could fit over it. Then I only had to connect the microwave to the duct. At the top of the appliance, there is a rectangular adapter. It took quite a while to connect it to the shoddy duct. Then I was able to put the duct into place, screw the adapter down, and secure and seal it all with tape. It's good.

Tomorrow I expect to receive the drain tailpiece so I can connect the dishwasher air gap.

Expecting the new light fixture in December, and the new kitchen table and chairs in... several months.
