My mom asked me, "Didn't anybody tell you not to use white grout?" Mom- this is really just sheetrock dust.




Ok- next came the wiring. We found out that the kitchen, dining room and living room had stuff all on the same circuit. We weren't quite sure if that was safe to install 6 new can lights on that same circuit that the main light in the kitchen was on, so Jay ended up rewiring the whole kitchen, installing new wire for the new two way switch, and moving a light switch and plug because we also decided to knock out the small wall going into the dining area to open it up a little more. The debate was on to knock out the wall between the kitchen and living room but we finally decided not to. That is for many reasons...1. All of our wires run through the ceiling so we would have to make beams to drop all the wires through. 2. Jay had already spent all day rewiring the dang kitchen. 3. We can't run wires underground because we sit on a cement slab. 4. All of our outside walls are insulated with hard foam insulation that would have to be chipped away to moved! 5. Eveybody then can see into my kitchen from the front door. Just forget it! The stove stays where it is at! And the wall stays!
