Clay came and helped get things put back in...the new tub went in and the plumbing was fixed up. The room was drywalled, mudded and taped. We had to make some decisions regarding the laundry. Unfortunately, my hubby decided it would be too much of a nuisance to stack the laundry team, as it would require a move of the dryer vent that would just be too much work for the result. The really sad part of that is that we bought this great pantry on sale at Canadian Tire, and the doors would have been EXACTLY like the doors for the cabinets IN the bathroom, man it would have looked great! Oh well, that pantry will go downstairs for me to store craft stuff which will free up another bookshelf, and that is never a bad thing...especially since I signed up to be an Usborne books consultant!
Anyway, back to the bathroom. Once that was all done, Stew came in and helped Greg with the ceramic tile and then that all took a couple of days, all the waiting for stuff to dry. Drywall mud, then more drywall mud, then thin-set, then grout, and then primer....finally paint...a lot of waiting went on for 3 days, which was VERY frustrating to my husband. At this point we still didn't have a toilet or a medicine cabinet, and we were having the toughest time deciding on these things! Finally once the floor was dry, and the grout had set and the second coat of paint was dry, the toilet was inevitable, so I printed the list of rebate-eligible toilets and Greg and Clay just picked one out and installed it.
And you don't even need to count to 5 while you hold the handle down to flush it! VERY exciting!
Now it is complete, and I could show you the pictures...but I haven't gotten them off of my memory card yet, so you still have to wait!

You should feel so pleased! It really does look amazing. Did you have a shower yet? (I hope!) It's almost unrecognizable from before and such a beautiful big room!
