I don't have time for a long post, but I have been very busy for the last two days, foot notwithstanding. Cabinets are all in, drawers assembled and in, countertops re-cut to fit, countertops secured to cabinets, touch up paint applied and electrical plates back on. A host of snags have come up along the way—the main one being the fact that when the sink went in, the countertops shifted, and the nice butting joint I had worked out now generated an angled countertop with a gap. After a lot of belt sanding and a small quantity of wood putty, however, we're good to go. There are a fair number of outstanding issues (not the least of which is that those countertops are really jammed up against our extremely uneven walls), but we have a more or less functional kitchen that will start getting stuff moved back into it tomorrow.

It looks great! I'm so jealous, and can't wait to see the finished product. I love the sink, too; so glad it worked out with the cabinet.
Come on by—we'll just be doing the hundreds of other things that are still left to do!
Congratulations from me in Connecticut.
Would u do it again??

I would do it again, I would just do it with the knowledge and foresight of having done it once already (i.e., wear protective shoes at all times, cut countertops 1/4 inch shorter than you think, etc.).
