Simple Pleasures

Not gonna lie, it feels a little bit (ok, a lotta bit) lame getting excited about seeing floors and walls.  But, the new bathroom has floors and walls.  ...mostly.  ...which is kinda neat I guess.  Hey, it's all about managing expectations and taking pleasure in the simple things.  Seriously though, it's come pretty far.  I mean, it wasn't that long ago that we were hauling miscellaneous piping from the backyard and getting eaten alive by fleas inside.  And now, we have walls!

(Ir)Regardless(ly), it's probably equally exciting to see pictures of it, so here they are:

View from the mudroom(?).  Vanity will be on the left

View from the bedroom.  Look there's floor.  ...that we'll put more floor on!

Note: That is NOT a 16 foot ladder

...and, to further cement this as the most exciting progress update ever, here's what the shower looks like now that the grout is done and dry and officially done (minus the door, but who even counts that really?  ...and the paint.  Fine, it's not done!).  Oh, and the drywall on the shower has been put up and mudded, so it's nice that that's been addressed.  ...again, it's the little things.

You can't really tell that the walls are drywalled, but they are.  ...guess I'll have to fire the photographer.
