Bathroom Progress Slow and Steady

So our 4 days off to do the bathroom was not enough. We have one of the three fixtures working but there is a floor and we do have the trailer.

*Day 1: Gut the room. Remove cast iron piping. Find out the floor was not stable. Doug and Stephen repair the floor.

*Day 2: Plumbing installed and the floor gets tiled.

*Day 3: Tub gets fixed in place.

*Day 4: Shane's Birthday. Trying to rest but obsessing and the walls start coming down and start getting replaced.

*Day 5: We have a toilet. Indoor plumbing is the way to go really.

*Day 6: Floor finally grouted. Gray grout with white tiles.
I do think this floor is what most people remove from their bathrooms but I like it.

Time to Start on the Garden

So now that the house is basically done. I am not sure if a home is ever really complete but for now no major projects inside. I decided to start on the front yard. It is lacking in curb appeal... So I used the broken pieces of concrete chimney/vent to create a tiered flower bed. I guess I am going for an English garden feel. Sticking to purples, whites, reds, and some pinks, for color. I did get a couple of ferns. I also planted Shane's silly fern he rescued from the gutter from our last rental. Pretty...

Still waiting... Still frustrated.

It has been 79 days since our bid was accepted. I know that once this is behind us we will enjoy our new home but right now it is just frustrating. I think we are at the stage we can feel secure that we are getting our loan. But our lender cannot get their act together and continues to need more information causing delay after delay. And HUD is charging $25 a day, despite they had us sign an extension till 9/20. I do not see why this is fair. On vacation to get the house started but we are spending all of our time trying to get the house. I am hoping they give us the keys this week. The Backyard: Boring but has potential The Living room: A good size but all surfaces need refinishing. The Kitchen: Big ugly getting a temporary face lift.

We have our Bedroom!!!

After 5 months we are finally sleeping in our room. There are still a couple of things we need to finish. The crown molding, and the ceiling light are the last things in the room. We need to finish the crown molding in the living room and hall. Then our closet is the next project. It is small. The lighting changed the wall color in this shot. The view from my side of the bed. The actual wall color. Our only themed room... The London Bathroom The large clock is definitely a statement in this tiny bathroom and I love it! Tube map shower curtain and wainscoting. No more towel folding just hang it.
