Going gray

Big day today--our cabinet doors and drawer fronts arrived! To be precise, the 2nd order arrived. The first order had the green ones that we loved so much in the online pictures. But in person, the green was a really ugly, depressing shade of green--think of a dark muddy brown-green.

I was so disappointed because the pictures of the green cabinets were much brighter and lighter. So we made the decision to go gray and I love it. The kitchen definitely feels lighter and the cupboards won't overwhelm the room.

We have the plywood sub-countertops installed and 3 coats of water-based poly brushed on. This will get us through the 5-6 weeks it takes for the quartz countertops to arrive, once they are ordered.

Ivy is still super sick with The Plague, 5 days in! Still has a fever and now has started to have a deep cough. I'm trying to decide if I should take her to our family doctor to listen for pneumonia. I'm usually a "wait until it gets better" kind of parent and, short of it being pneumonia, there isn't much to do about it anyway.

I started feeling sick last night. No fever yet, but definitely feeling icky. Will I have The Plague tomorrow? I hope not!
