One question about the outlets by the sink, I had read they should be on the same circuit, but I don't understand that, and think it only applied to if you didn't have a GCFI?
The reason the furnace ended up on the same as some of these is because it is about 25 feet from the panel, and some genius ran it through a junction box that splits to the upstairs outlets. It also has the 2 basement lights on it, so when the kitchen outlet overloads and trips the breaker, I get to trip in the dark looking for the panel! Fun stuff!

You're allowed 2 outlets per circuit on a kitchen counter. Nothing else on them. They also have to be 20A breakers and T slot plugs. Garborator and lights together should be OK. Dishwasher needs it's own circuit. The counter plugs should be gfci if they're within reach of the sink, gfci has nothing to do with number of outlets per circuit.
Here's a t slot gfci picture:
