I am currently without a kitchen and feel a bit ... lost.
Usually our kitchen is the place where everyone gathers, even without a fire. We sit around the table chatting, scribbling, humming, typing, drawing, laughing - being a family. And now we don't really fit in there with all the dust and clutter.
Don't get me wrong, I am really really really looking forward to getting my new kitchen tomorrow. Not being a complete idiot I realize that, in order the build up something new you have to tear down the old and I didn't mind the dismantling of the old kitchen all that much. I had something to do, I was part of it.
Now, however, I have to sit around and watch. And wait. Today the electrician and the plumber do their part, tomorrow the carpenter will build up the cupboards. Hopefully they will be done by Tuesday evening, so that I can start packing our stuff away again and try to find some sort of system. Hopefully from Wednesday on I will be involved again. I hate just standing by and watching.
