Demolition continues

Progress is being made on the demolition portion of my new kitchen.

Today

 (after an 8 mile hike and a wash and wax of the car)

I did this:

It was actually really fun knocking out that soffit.

I really hated that soffit.

And now I will have room for my really tall cabinets!!

 I also spent some time pulling floor staples.

About a billion of them.

Actually, I've been pulling them in sets of about 75-100 at a time.

I have the blisters to prove it.

And I still have about a million of them to pull out.

*sigh*

I also pulled tile off the wall today.

I still have another wall to remove tile from.

It doesn't look too pretty and I will need to patch the drywall in a few places.

And give the whole thing a scratch coat of mud.

*SIGH*

So here's a picture of all of today's progress.



I still have to get the saws-all and take out those 2x4's that held up the soffit.

I like power tools!

And *SIGH* there is more floor to come up.

Which means more staples.

*SIGH*
