In a decision that really could have gone either way (to re-tile or not to), we decided to bite the bullet and go through with updating the rest of the tile in the condo to match our bathroom.
With all the visitors, the time for tiling came faster than we ever expected. Our place has been in chaos ever since. It was not as terrible of a process as I’d anticipated, but we first had to live almost a week with all the stuff from our bedroom (including all clothes and misc. things in closets) piled in the living room. I couldn’t believe how much it all adds up! The second week was everything from the living room piled up into the bedroom. It gives me an inkling of how pack rats may live. I have no fear of ever becoming a pack rat, since my level of discomfort rises in direct relation to the clutter that surrounds me.
But, the good new is, we are in the home stretch! While we were pretty much homeless during the days when the tile workers were here, and homeless one night in order to get the tiles done quicker, we managed quite well. Now that everything is out of the living room area, though, Chris thinks it’s a great time (and it really is) to paint the ceilings and the walls. But first, we need to have an electrician look at some ghost switches that run to nowhere. Dad- thank your lucky stars we realize we needed to address this issue a few weeks ago! So, sounds like we might be living la vida loca for a week or more until we manage to snag an electrician that will come to his appointment (unlike the one that was supposed to be here last Thursday and then again last Friday). No fun photos on this one. But we’re moving right along…
