The drywall is up in the kitchen and the dining area (new drywall areas) now, and the floor will be done this coming week. It's coming along!
The wall to the left with the covered window is where the sink will go. The covered area is the look-through window between the kitchen and the family room. The family room was added in early 1990s.
In the corner is where the refrigerator used to be. I can't wait to see what the kitchen looks like with the full benefits of the windows there, without the refrigerator covering up one of them.
This is the new drywall area, where the new refrigerator will go.
The doorway between the living and dining rooms was moved over a bit to accommodate the longer wall to the left. Oh, and the overhead light in the dining room is a goner, to be replaced with something a bit more up-to-date. :-)
Using a soy gel product that we found, Mike has been stripping the 70+ years of paint from the fireplace to see what was underneath. He discovered a bit of a hodge-podge of wood types.

By the way, the soy gel product that Mike has been using is pretty good. It doesn't smell like traditional stripping products, and you can leave it on, covered with plastic, for up to 24-hours for maximum removal (e.g., 3+ layers of paint).
