Remember my late contractor

[maddmaxx ★]

Well I hired my wife's nephew to do the flooring.  He's the super for a very large apartment complex (converted mill buildings) and has a lot of experience at laying floors.  He was here yesterday to remove the old flooring and put down the glue.  It's 9:29am, I've fed him breakfast (fast food unfortunately) and this much floor is done already.  He's worth more to me than the high dollar contractors.  He was here at 8am

One more row and then the partials for this side of the room and the fridge, stove and extra base cabinet can be moved to do that part.

Lunch yesterday, Chinese last night, Breakfast this morning and a dinner at his favorite steak house sometime in the future.  This is womaxx's favorite nephew.  We take care of him.

Wait.  Did you off the contractor? Or can’t you say?

[maddmaxx ★]

Yea.  The floor is in.  We will now put the kitchen back together.  There are plans to dynamite the corner base cabinet out again and replace it with a commercial cabinet but we are still negotiation with the companies involved for some monetary relief.  The nephew however will do any work in the future not the representatives of National Restorations or their subcontractors.  They are not welcome in my house.

Now womaxx has here coke shrine kitchen/diner that she's always wanted.

He’s dead, and that’s all we need to know.

With the exception of the butchered corner cabinet (which could stay there for a long time without any problems of it's usefulness because the problems are all appearance and workmanship)  I'm pleased.  It's not an expensive kitchen.  We painted the cabinets black several years ago and it's an easy color to touch up.  Compared to the dingy cream/tan flooring that was there before the destruction the new floor makes the room pop.  It's not an expensive floor and I doubt it will last 30+ years like the old one did. (but then neither will I)

My exact thoughts about roofs and fence posts.  They'll all outlive me.
