A Chapter About To Be Finished

House

We officially have a working bathroom upstairs. No longer do we have to trudge down two flights of stairs for that middle of the night bladder call. No longer do we have to drag Brendan down to the cold basement to take a bath.

Here is our finished Douglas fir bathroom floor:

And with the essentials mostly in place:

Sorry about the 3 different shades of yellow on the walls. Every picture was about 10 times too dark so I had to brighten them all up and it resulted in the walls looking like they were repainted between each photo.

Now all we need is the window trim to be put into place, the bottom trim to be put into place, the outlet covers installed, and some sort of medicine cabinet/mirror installed. After that it is just decorating.

All I care about is having a functioning bathroom within reasonable walking distance from the bedroom!

    Beautiful! Love the claw foot tub!

    Hope you guys are hanging in there… And that you don’t have any water in your basement!

    That’s all anyone really wants.

    Jen: Not much for water yet. One corner is a bit damp, but that is about it.

    Eric: Indeed!

    Nice, nice, nice! I would be very proud of that! I am seriously hoping your latest post was an April Fool’s day joke!!!!!!

    If you look closely, you’ll notice in huge light gray letters it says “Happy April Fool’s Day!” :)
