Settled In / Sort Of

Since my last update, I have actually moved in and been living here for almost two weeks. There have not been any major changes since my last post have made some progress in a few areas:

1. Refrigerator: In an effort to save money, I'm trying to cook more meals at home which required a fridge. After realizing how much new fridges cost, I found a nice used model for sale that works just fine and has an ice maker to boot. However, in my search for a fridge I realized just how small appliances were back in the 1950's and this unit (which is pretty small) just barely fits in the space. I'm not sure what kind of options I will have going forward for a larger fridge or will I have to redo the kitchen cabinetry. Picture of the fridge below.

2. Electrical: This falls into the category of necessary evil upgrades on 50+ year old home... My electrician was great and made some key updates including grounding multiple outlets, installing new outlets in key areas, and running CAT-5E for ATT Uverse. The big benefit for me is being able to put some of my electrical equipment in the right places in the house. In the living room I will hide all of my AV gear in this built in cabinet and have no visible cables at all. I will have a similar setup in my master bedroom.
