Back to School
I'm headed back to school tomorrow after taking last year off. I'm going to totally suck at having a schedule. It would probably help if I went to bed before 4 tonight.
What was going to be a re-tiling of the bathroom has turned into a total remodel after extensive dry rot and a good deal of shoddy construction was discovered. It's a good thing we found it when we did because the wooden floor under the tile was so crapily constructed that they didn't even nail the boards down. We have apparently been in danger of falling through the floor while on the toilet for quite some time. The room is now stripped to the studs, and we can see our basement through the giant holes in the floor. According to the dates on the newspapers that were used to back the old tile, the last time this bathroom saw any major maintenance was October of 1946. The more you know... the less likely you are to fall through the floor.
Because of this we do not currently have a shower in our house. A co-worker of my dad is on her honeymoon, so we've been using hers, but she comes back tomorrow so I'm going to have to start bumming showers off of people. You don't appreciate the little things until you have to drive across town to wash your hair. I will never take another shower for granted.
