Renovations, Day 8

[lagilman]

Wednesday, I admit, there was no liveblogging. Mainly because I was home long enough to check on progress, reassure the cats, and dash off again.

Thursday, um, likewise.

(hey, people were in town. Meals to be eaten. Gossip to be exchanged. Also, the sound of tile being cut is actually worse than the sound of tile being pulled off walls. Higher-pitched. V. distracting.

However, I can report that lo, there is Finished Wall! And Finished Floor! And Implements of Showering!

However, the toilet they installed Did Not Flush. And so the old one is back in while we wait for a replacement. And I can't actually USE the shower until they finish grouting on Monday.

And there's still painting the walls, installing the sink, and reglazing the tub to go. But that sound! It is the sound of the dragon warming up at the end of the tunnel!

--------------
And the walls, at least, have been primed. (the ceiling will wait until Taller Person is available). If I can finish the painting this weekend, then it should all be over but the bill-paying by Tuesday. Maybe....

Non-flushing toilets are the stuff of nightmare. (Also unusable showers. I am such a clean-freak.)

Thankfully, between the gym and The Guy's place, I've been able to maintain my shower routine. Hot water makes the world go round....

Sounds like it's coming along great! Well, except for the toilet part.
