Order Restored

After spending two nights on the living room sofa hide-away bed, which was not a fun adventure as that thing was like sleeping on a bed of rocks, we returned the house to a semblance of normal yesterday.

Last night we slept in our own bed! Hurrah!

The bathroom looks great, except for one thing. We ordered a new vanity top some time ago because the old one had cracked in the sink bowl. Despite my query of "shouldn't you call and see if the new one has arrived?" my husband removed the old vanity top and then hopped in his truck and went to get the new one.

Of course the new one hasn't arrived yet and won't for another 10 days or so. So we have no sink in the bathroom at the moment. We do have a piece of plywood over the vanity to use a place to lay things like the hairdryer.

A minor inconvenience, to be sure.

I was amazed how such a seemingly small project disrupted the entire house. You'd have thought we were tearing out walls or something if you guessed by the state of disarray.

  1. Isn't this always the case?! I've never known a home improvement project that didn't become much bigger...and take much longer...and usually cost much more than originally planned. We just went through this in our townhouse in Florida - repairing after Hurricane Wilma.

  2. Oh dear. And I thought a bathroom was bad. You probably had to do an entire house!
