Busy day today

Spending the evening at Lulu's house. Spent eight hours today ripping out the kitchen cabinets in my Mom and Dad's condo. This is where the frozen pipe was and the cabinets (and the drywall behind them) sustained the most damage. The remediation company took their toys away this afternoon as the rest of the place is nice and dry. Now begins the long process of rebuilding... The kitchen was a bit dated so I am planning on taking the insurance money and adding some more and luxing the place up a bit -- cast concrete countertops, nice cherry cabinets, a good gas stove. If I put in $10K of upgrades, I should realize maybe $50K of increase in resale value. That curve only goes so far so I am not going overboard. Taking the trailer to the dump tomorrow, renting a dehumidifier and heading back home for a meeting tomorrow evening. Talking to people about a community Radio station.
