Getting unstuck

Morgan and her fiance Edgar and Austin pitched in to help us remodel the upstairs bathroom - a major step in getting our house back in shape.

The lack of a functioning sink in the upstairs bathroom has been a factor in our not being able to move our bed out of the dining room and into an upstairs bedroom. Yes, we've been sleeping in the dining room since we moved back to Thorntown in August, 2017.

We remodeled the downstairs half-bath as soon as we moved back, putting in a new waterproof faux wood floor, vanity and sink, shower stall and stacked Samsung washer and dryer. We bought enough of the waterproof flooring to do the upstairs bathroom and that's what happened last week. The new vanity is in place and we're waiting for a plumber to hook up the sink. He was supposed to come yesterday morning, but his mother-in-law is at death's door and he needs to support his wife and her family. We can wait. We've waited more than a year already. What's a few more days?

Our upstairs bedroom still needs some final plaster skim coating, paint, and crown molding and then we can move the bed in and get the rest of our dining room furniture out of storage and start using the house as it was supposed to be used.
