Next, the article suggests you make sure to have some sort of way to refrigerate food, either by relocating the existing fridge to a garage or laundry room, or by purchasing a mini fridge, like in your younger days.

Also, set up a temporary kitchen somewhere, the article says, so you have some place to toss together a meal or two.

Finally, the article suggests including takeout and food delivery to your budget, because let’s face it, you will be using it more than usual.

“But Stewart,” you say, “you are putting the cart before the horse!” Well, dear reader, if hiring a remodeler has you afraid to move, there are a good number of tips in the Las Vegas Review-Journal.
