Kitchen Renovation - Day 56

I think I've been patient but my patience just ran out...

Two months now without a sink and I've begun to doubt

That our kitchen renovation's ever getting done.

Trust me when I say this process isn't any fun.

No one but our great designer (God bless Lisa Green)

Seems to care how long it's been or how I'm gonna clean

Pots and pans and cutting boards in my small, bathroom sink...

With no stove, preparing meals is harder than you'd think.

Still, I've tried to make it work with paper cups and plates,

Tripping over boxes and appliances in crates,

Waiting for our countertops... Then, yesterday, I heard

They won't be arriving here until the 23rd.

"Just a couple days," they said.  Yet, that will make 19.

And, although I wanted to, I didn't make a scene...

But I'd recommend you undergo a change of heart

If you've been considering a renovation start.

Kitchen Reno - In Praise of Experts

(This isn't actually it, but I haven't figured out how to share mine with you, yet.)

I just got a look at my new kitchen elevations;

Green Design Group's well exceeded my high expectations.

Lisa Green is knowledgeable, funny - very kind -

Didn't miss a beat at a last minute change of mind.

She is making sure there's not a space that goes to waste

And, to my great fortune, Lisa has outstanding taste.

She has been here twice already and she stays in touch;

Answers all my questions and has helped me out so much.

Now I need appliances; I may buy them on-line.

Lisa said some other clients did and they were fine.

Helping smooth what's bound to be a pretty bumpy ride,

Nice to have an expert like her working by my side.
