Writing a large check...

Steve stopped by the house as scheduled to take the final measurements and get the cabinet order completed. He really liked the house, especially the pool table in the living room.



He took all the necessary measurements and checked them twice. We discussed the next steps, potential delivery dates, and installation arrangements. He suggested a guy they work with closely and regularly, which was fine by me. We discussed the flooring options and he agreed with our desire to have the flooring installed wall to wall first, then install the cabinets on top rather than install the cabinets on underlayment and then install the new flooring up to it. So after all the discussion, it came down to writing the check... 1/2 down for the cabinets and all cost for the counter tops. Of course, Carolyn passed the check book to me for that deed...

Now that the cabinet order has been executed, it is time to get the rest moving forward - flooring, cabinet installation, and appliances. Oh, and also getting gas plumbed into the island!
