Reno Update!




I can no longer blame any contractor for falling behind or getting delayed for any project, as a simple 30 sq foot bathroom renovation can sometimes encounter problems you didn't anticipate. The most glaring one was today's decision to remove the old toilet paper holder to install a new, nice, shiny chrome one. Well, turns out the previous installers decided to cut a square hole to install said holder. So yeah, there is now this gaping hole in my wall. This delayed the 2nd coat of paint and installation of the new holder, as all stores are closed today to pick up any supplies to fix it. And of course, until everything is painted, we won't put in the cabinets and new counter until that's done. In fairness, we already had to lay out some grout for the tiles and that has to sit 16 hours before you're supposed to be able to walk on them, so maybe it was a way for the reno gods to drive the point home for us.

So my toilet is still in my kitchen, but that should be rectified tomorrow. I figure by Thursday at the latest we'll be done. It'll be worth it in the end though, right!?
