Bathroom

We spent a lot of money this weekend, most notably on a new toilet and the bulk of our tile from Home Depot. The special order stuff comes in to Roma Tile in about four weeks so the timing of this all should be interesting.

My car has now passed the toilet test - the toilet, medicine cabinet and some extras fit in the trunk! I didn't want to overload the poor thing, so we went back to get the tile on a separate trip. Its weird, this is the first renovation job where we've utilized the Impala and its been wonderful. Brian's truck was used for the tub and we'll use it for any blueboard, cement board and that kind of thing, but its nice having another option that's not a 9 miles per gallon ride now.

I sat in the (dry) tub with Jayne on Saturday morning. For whatever reason he's really taken to hanging out in there. I was able to put my legs down flat in the bottom and the tub rim is about shoulder-height. Damn! I can't wait to have the thing in use. :)

Wow, the tub looks a lot like ours! If it's acrylic, just be careful with the framing; mine isn't 100% level and square, so I had a devil of a time laying and grouting the tile where it meets the tub. It's not even off by enough that you can see it, just off by enough that getting a clean grout line was a PITA due the tub flexing a little bit.

Y'all have probably done enough renovations to have figured that out yourselves, though. :-)

I love how it's coming together!
