Day Seven. After 3 hours last night, the contractor put in 2.5 hours building a new back wall. Apparently we need the ti-back (which goes behind the new wall), then we need the pink insulation. Then this new wall will installed. This bathroom will become the warmest room in the house in the winter as it will be the only room with insulation on the outside wall.
Labor on the outside wall will add approximately $3K to cost of the project. I have to get an estimate on how much materials will cost for that outside wall.
Lets start talking about colors. Remember what the tile looked like in Day Three. We're thinking about shades of green or perhaps shades of bronze -- we're looking at the accent tile (on the left in the tile picture.)
The most important part of tonight's story.... When I was a little girl our dog of 13 years died. We loved Sandy and were quite shaken by his death. I crawled into the closet in my bedroom and wrote a little tribute to him on the wall. Approximately 20 years later, my parents were selling our childhood home. While emptying all the rooms and closets, my father came across this tribute. I remember writing it. It was a pivotal moment in my life. My most recent pivotal moment is my recent marriage to my heart's love (the hubby contractor). I wrote a little tribute on our new wall. (that's the third picture.)
