Bathroom Remodeling

We're into the last stages of our hall bathroom re-deaux.  Our friend Rob Wolfe, owner of Majestic Flooring in Ruskin is laying us an amazing (newer) product on the floors!  It's a hard man made material, but flexible, with a little give when you walk over it.  Rob is laying it with "grout" lines between the pieces.  Those are actually made of long strips of plastic he cuts to fit.  The new floor will look just like we have a nifty, expensive slate & terracotta floor in there.  Will take photos soon, no light fixture back in there yet. I have step by step photos of the "before" with my drywall repair, moving the wall electric, texturizing all the walls with mud, priming with a deep pink paint and then painting the walls a deep terracotta red.  Today, we picked the vanity cabinet base paint. So now all that's left to do is for my Handy Husband Art to paint, cut and attach the wide baseboard we've chosen, then paint the cabinet & drawers.  He's decided that painting the cabinets is HIS job.  OK, twist my arm!  Then we can instal the new toilet, cabinet, sink/vanity, mirror, light fixture, towel bar, TP holder, shower curtain, window curtain, a closet door or drape and maybe even a new bathroom door!

Monday Thoughts - Happy August

Had a great Power Walk this morning with my walking buddy.  We started today about 6:30AM and the sky was a beautiful deep blue and pinky-orange.  Little Bats were still flying around lapping up bugs before they headed off to bed in some remote dark place.  I'm bringing up Bats because some Critter is eating our fruit on the Carambola (Star Fruit) Tree in the back yard.  The tree is directly outside my office window.  I get to marvel at the spender of this huge tree every time I'm at my computer!  Anyway, I've noticed that some of the fruit looks chewed.  Looks like tiny "teeth" marks, chewing marks in a scooping shape. Could it be the Bats? Some fruit ends up on the ground chewed and others are still hanging in the tree. Just something I wonder about.  At least we're naturally feeding our organic fruit to some Critter!
