The Stevens: 131 Update- Tuesday

So the day started off a bit overwhelming-- but ended great.

Lucky for us; Mike had to stop at home for something and was able to meet our contractor, the plumber and the electrician. They were able to figure out some details and work through some issues that would have been more challenging to do over the phone.

So today more of the demo happened. The plumber routed the pipes to the other side of the kitchen for the sink & dishwasher. (Side note: he asked if our sink in the kitchen ever drained properly... of course I knew Mike wanted to shout NO and then tell how he knew it was my fault for 1. food going down the drain and 2. hair from the shower backing up. He then told us how the pipe was completely clogged and drain-o wasn't going to change that. In conclusion-- not Jodi's fault!!!)
Anyways, he also re did the pipe to the main bathroom so that when we run the washing machine it doesn't back up into our sink (yes you read that correct-- gross right?) He also rerouted the dryer exhaust vent to go outside and not into our crawl space which in turn pushed back into our house. He said he can't believe that our carbon monoxide detector didn't go off all the time from the exhaust coming back into the house-- kind of scary. They also put pipes in the bathroom for the double sinks. And the base for the new tub/shower is in place.

The electrician marked up the house for his plans as well. They said that the new plans should help with all the blown fuses that we incurred if we had on the microwave and toaster oven.

One of the coolest parts to see is the hole that we put in that will be over the kitchen sink; looking into the living room! It is going to open things up so much.

I'm sure I'm missing some things that they did-- it is all so amazing!
