86'n It

November is supposed to be NEW BATHROOM MONTH. Sort of a hilarious statement, no?

Well, Marc forgot he promised me a toilet by thanksgiving, when 7 of my family members are coming to visit. I might have flown off the handle a little bit [read: I had an absolute shit fit.].

So, after our "discussion", Marc stayed up late and ordered all the fixtures and the shower base last night. Here's a really really boring photo collage. (Unless you are a plumbing fixture geek like he is, then don't let the drool get on your keyboard.)


I'm pretty happy, but renovating with two different personalities is HARD y'all.

It is harder on Marc now that we are selling. He is a perfectionist and I know it is killing him to not be justified in taking 10 months to design a bathroom like he would be if this was indeed our forever-home. (But even then, 10 months???)

Deadlines and getting things done is my forte. Problem is, this bathroom is "his project" because I got to design the upstairs bathroom (albeit in a rush so we could move in and not look through a floor hole into the room below while on the toilet.)

Anybunny, it seems like this project is finally getting underway. I think I did the right amount of "loud talking" [as Marc calls yelling] and waddling around the house with my enormous pregnant belly hanging out while breathing heavily.

Oh, and I might recently started sitting in our upstairs [only] bathroom messing on my phone when I know Marc has to go. Mwahhhhh! Motivation!






The Schluter shower system is a really great way to make a fool-proof waterproof shower. More info here. (no, I'm not being paid to say that. It is just cool.)
