Kitchen Remodel - pray for me!

[Crankin]

We did a major kitchen remodel after moving into this house and it went exactly as planned. They said 6 wks. and it took 5. We set up a microwave and burner on the table (we have a separate eating area) and put the fridge in the dining room. Bought lots of paper plates and prepared foods from the grocery store. I did have to wash things in the bathtub, upstairs, but right when we got sick of it, it was over. I am a super neat freak, too, but there was not much you could do about the dust. Our family room and bedroom are on a different level, so that helped. Not all construction is a nightmare. The same people did a gut job and remodel of our master bath and there was only one glitch, not their fault when the guy who they hired to do some work on the hard wood floor didn't come when he was supposed to. However, DH was able to be at home for most of the work and he really knows about this stuff. Me, I looked at the plans and said fine to something in the bathroom, and I ended up not liking it. I don't have the patience to deal with the details or planning of this stuff. I like nice things, but I know nothing about house stuff, to the point that after 31 years, this is the first time I participated in any buying, remodeling decisions, except for furniture. I mean, i made the decision about which house to buy for all of the moves, but not the carpets, floor, window treatments, landscaping. I find this stuff to be boring; maybe I didn't get the female gene here?
