Photos of the Wall

So this is when I realize I what I've forgotten to take photos of! I didn't get any photos when we were knee deep in pulling lathe & plaster off the wall, but you can see the remnants of the lathe
and plaster on the floor...

And I have not yet taken photos of the wall with drywall back up on it, but it is there, and so is one layer of mud. Maybe tomorrow night I'll have a free night to sand & do a second layer of mud!
When my kitchen guy comes, he will continue the wall across the side of the Microwave, so it will just go into a shelf, instead of a shelf open on two sides. In this way, my new cabinet can reach across the length of the whole wall, AND he'll be adding a shelf above the microwave for cookbooks!
Under the front of the microwave we built a box into the wall before drywalling over it, so later we'll cut the center hole out and push in a pre-built (as in, pre-built by us) built in bookshelf for more cookbooks! Nice! Finally more accessible!
