Wow, looks like your doing a total make over! Did you take the insulation out, or there never was any?
There never was any insulation, anywhere in the house.
That dumb popcorn ceiling had to go, it was so ugly. Fortunately, the other rooms just have plain ceilings.
The kitchen cabinets hadn't been touched since at least the '70's so they were in poor shape. The wiring has to be re-done as it it mostly the old, old stuff (and not enough outlets for code). The kitchen is the biggest job of all the rooms, it will be "new" when we're all done.
