OK, got the plumber out and he had to go about 25' into the pipe to unclog it so I am really glad I didn't decide to tackle this since my snake is about 10' long!!!
I reused the floor laminate since it was only a year or 2 old - went to Home Depot and bought the last 3 boxes when I ofund out that they just discontinued it, now I am scrambling trying to find the edge trim - I have 4 pieces but need 2 more. Darn it.

Also struggling with the back splash. Can't make up our minds - actually it's me - Joanie just wants it done. she is definitely not as fussy as I am. But if I am going to have to spend my time installing it, then darn-it I had better like it.

Check out Joanie at her new workstation - her cookbooks are in the bookshelf to her left - nice!!!!

OK, so here are the latest pictures in the kitchen remodel. Sink, faucet, hot water, dishwasher, disposer, etc went on-line on Friday and the cooktop went on-line today.
All is good - right. NOT!!!! The sink is plugged up now. I had to move the drain under the sink because SOMEONE didn't come back with the (No More than) 8" sink.They came back with a 9+" sink and I had to switch the drain pipe to the lower vent pipe. Geez, I hope it was actually a real drain otherwise there is a lot of ---- in that pipe. Joanie has been using the dishwasher, .... since Friday
Waaaaaaah!!

Kitchen Update

Well here is the latest picture - not a great one.

Counters are in and I finished the plumbing last night but I will probably go back in and replace the 1/8" line since I used old compression fittings and they want to weep. I had to really tighten them so I will replace with new which I should have done to begin with but spaced out.

New faucet and sink is awesome and I love the overall layout

Kitchen look bigger and the window looks huge
