Okay, I skipped a couple days' worth of work on the bathroomrenovation, but that's just posting the photos online. I did manage to take pictures daily. Now I can play catch up, and post the important ones.
They also put the paper covering on the floor so that they wouldn't get all the other stuff all over the place. And, they put in the ceramic caddy(the place we bought it from called it a "shampoo holder") the next day, along with the vanity base and the soapstone-looking countertop -- with the basin. The sink fixtures were also installed, and you can see the small trim tile around the walls of the tub, too:
Today, they finished up the bathroom. The only problem is that the vanity bathroom mirror(also a medicine cabinet) is WAY too low. So is the lighting above the bathroom mirror. When I stand in front of the mirror, I am perfectly aligned in the middle of the mirror...and seeing that I am all of 5'2", this means the mirror is certainly too low. You can only see a corner of the bathroom mirror, but you can already see how too-close it is to the top of the counter, which is already relatively low:
Sophie's new favorite room is now the bathroom because of all the new smells she encounters daily. Here she is, checking out the new toilet -- which is a water-saving toliet. This is a big issue here in California. This toilet uses about half the amount of water a standard toilet utilizes for a single flush. Pretty economical:
The guys will come back on Monday to do some sealing on the tile (we're not allowed to put up the shower curtainrod or the shower curtainbecause the showerisn't ready to use until after the sealant is complete. When they return, we are also going to have them adjust the height of the bathroom mirror and the lighting so that the mirror isn't crowding the sink and the lighting.
