shine on adversity

I was hoping I wouldn't feel the need to take a break here, but I currently am feeling extremely frustrated with our progress.  I need to take a break from blogging so I can get things moving on the kitchen front.  David has very limited time available, so I often get stuck because I am just not strong enough to tackle certain things.  We are kind of at a place where all these things rely on other things.  I want to lay the new floor, but am afraid starting it before removing the old cabinetry will result in damage.  I want to start one wall of tile, but can't until the new cabinets are installed.  I want to paint the new cabinets, but they are still at the store.  I want to buy the new cabinets, but I can't load and unload them by myself.  I want to paint, but we have to remove that freaking brick atrocity first.  I want to remove the brick wall, but we need the skill saw to do it, which is over at my parents' house. 

You know what I need right now?  An assistant!  Man the things I could do with an assistant! Unfortunately all the people I love are the responsible type with jobs.  How inconvenient.

Ugh.  See why I just need a break?  Otherwise you will have to listen to this until a bit of progress is made.  For now I am going to turn my studio into a makeshift kitchen so we can eat a few things.  Then I am going to the store to buy paper plates and cups.  Then I may try to get at least half the floor done...the part that won't require traffic.  There's nothing that says it has to all be done on the same day, right?

So you will see me back here on Monday probably.  I will still be popping in over at flickr, because well, I can't be stopped over there!
