We are on week two now. I have not been able to sleep at my own house for 1.5 weeks of those 2. I contracted this work out b/c 1) I had to gut the whole thing and replace rotten subflooring which hello I like tools and wood as much as the next person but I know when I don't know what I am doing which would have been then/now; 2) I needed to get it done before I have a Swiss Renter for three months who will be renting/paying for my clawfoot tub starting Feb 1 and at this point, I am wondering why I agreed to a renter but whatever, it's only for a little while and I get a tub out of the deal; and 3) good lord who has the time to remodel your own bathroom these days like when would I be able to knock down a wall and re-route plumbing and re-wire and drywall and etc etc = never. So that is where we stand. I also need you to pray for the safe and speedy delivery of my clawfoot tub which is being driven god knows where out of Pennsylvania to here and if it doesn't come tomorrow, they can't deliver until Tues. I don't even know what to say anymore. I am trying to be zen throughout this whole ordeal. And failing.
Would you like to geek out on some before, during, and after pix? Sure you would because what could be more exciting than looking at someone else's bathroom is what I say. You will have to wait for the 'after' pix until after whenever that is but hopefully Mon or Tues lord willing. Here you go:
This was taken in July when I was looking to buy the place:
This was when the side wall was knocked out and the toilet still worked. Those were the days..
This is total gutted and new subfloor installed. The toilet is but a dream.
This is The Farmer planing my wood. Which is not a euphemism but should be.
This is drywalled and repurposed wood floors installed. Please note the arrow where the toilet will be hopefully tomorrow.
Stay tuned for more during/after pix. Yes, I know, very riveting. Very edgy. The excitement is palpable.
Edited: Here you go, the moment you've been waiting for. My bathroom is DUN holla.
