Chris finished his class, took a few weeks off, and was ready to get started on another project. (Mind you, not finish any of the current projects I still need to finish.) We hadn't been using the shower in our master bathroom for about a year and a half since the shower had a crack and we thought there might already be water damage or worse, more mold. Chris said he would have it FINISHED in ONE MONTH!

BUT, go big or go home. If you're going to tear out most of the walls and floor in the bathroom, you might as well start from scratch and make the bathroom big enough to be considered a master bathroom. Our neighbor suggested we move the bathroom wall back 20 inches, into the dining room. I'll be honest, I was excited about having a larger vanity and shower, but not about all of the extra work and re-piping it would entail. Luckily, it's not my project and Chris said he would have it done in a month from...

Our dining room? Yes, half of one of the walls will stick out 20 inches more. In several years when we remodel the kitchen and dining room, we'll put in cabinets on the other part of the wall and it will look awesome! Until then, we'll just put our china cabinet there and hope it doesn't look weird.
During destruction, Chris nicked an electrical wire to the washing machine which killed the power in a random half throughout our house. At 9pm another sweet neighbor of ours who is so conveniently an electrician came over and switched around some circuit breakers so we would have some of the power back. This left us only without power for a few days to our living room (now our dining table also), front entrance, oven/stove, and washer and dryer.

I'll be so glad when the bathrooms are finished! :o)
On another note, Chris got a gun safe!!! Thank goodness!
