Prepped (hopefully) one of the upper cabinets in the kitchen to be removed. The nails are pulled/cut off and I should be able to pull it down by taking out the one screw I put in. They used 16 penney framing nails to put them up. :cuss:I have one of the lowers detached from the wall and countertop loosened from it. Took down the stainless backsplash behind the stove also. I'll get the vent hood out tomorrow, and hopefully another upper ready to take down.

Just got done for the day. Framed. Plywood. Thinset bedded the backer board and stuck half the raised hearth tile. Ordered the stone veneer for the back of it yesterday. The band in front is just temptorary. That and the mantel i’m staining the same color as the island. found out also the counter top guys are 2 months out. Wtf. Got on the board at least. I still got a huge deck to build anyways. And a bunch of other nickel dime shit to do anyways but that sucks.

been super bummed lately. My daughter just called me and told me she bought us all tickets to go see Pearl Jam down in Sac on Wed. She’s so cool. We were talking, might as well do Disney Land here hella soon. We only live once and i’ve been so busy not living the last few years.

last time I seen Pearl Jam was with my boy Scotty who just passed.

The cabinets look lighter in color than last time, must be the light in the room.

Damn, that makes it a PITA... They usually screw the cabinets to each other as well, so check for that if there's more than one.

Whatchu know about under cab lighting

i did that a few days ago
If i was a real electrician i would have roughed in the power for them where it would just come out and feed the lights straight from the wall. My dumb ass roughed in the power in the middle. My electrician brother said why did you do that. But what do you do when your electrician brother is a lush and doesn’t like helping his older brother even though i’m always helping him.
