The appliances are all back in place.
No microwave over the stove anymore. It was higher than Judy’s head and didn’t seem safe for handling hot food. We bought a countertop model that can sit just to the right of the stove. The perfect height. Now we only have a range hood above the stove.
And with the refrigerator and stove gone from our living room we have more space there again too.
Not done, but better every day. A little more work by the contractor tomorrow, then we get the weekend off again.
