Another Project Started

Well we finally got the supplies to start the front bath/laundry room project. Colton and I met after work on Friday so we could have all Saturday and Sunday to work, but of course every time we do a project nothing goes as planned....... Everything was ready for the tub to go in so we opened the right side tub box to find out that the there was a left sided tub in it. So back to Home Depot. Once home, knowing we had the right one this time we started attaching the drain plug and over flow pieces on the tub. Almost finished and about ready to hook up we realized that the piece wasn't long enough for our tub (it was for a standerd height tub and ours is about 3" taller). So another trip to Home Depot and Lowe's. Tub install started about 9:30am and didn't officially end till 8:00pm.

This is all we got done on Saturday!


Sunday we figured everything was going to go a little smoother, but of course not. We got everything to move the faucet and shower head over 2" and Colton went to hook up the new one to make sure everything would work before we tiled and the new faucet was missing the brushed finish screws.....RRRRRrrrrr. Back to Home Depot for another one. Colton finished all the moving over but needed one more piece for the piping. So we both got fed up moved on to the hardi backer and I went and mowed the lawn. I don't think any of our projects have gone smoothly. Its always about 10 trips to Home Depot no matter how hard we try to think of everything before we go.




Well at least its coming together.......very slowly :)
