It's missing the little things in life that makes me realize how easy we have it here in the industrialized west. When our great kitchen remodel started in February we lost water and gas in the kitchen. Cooking was by microwave and dishes were washed on the back patio in a blue tub and rinsed with a garden hose.
A couple weeks ago we got the sink installed and water hooked up. Now I could wash the dishes in the sink! It was just like the 1950s again. Yay! Then the gas range was put back in and we can now cook real meals. Double yay! This past week I pleaded with the kitchen artiste to re- install the dishwasher as a mother's day present for the Missus. He had planned to be working on someone else's kitchen all week but he relented and put the dishwasher in for me. Triple yay! No more washing dishes by hand.
We're finally back in the 21st century and I have a better appreciation of the small things in life.
