The workmen showed up right on time to begin work on the Bathroom Magnificent! More questions, nothing too important.
Question 1: Lights. Where? What kind? Three pot lights are being added. The 10 x 10 room will be lit up for the blindest of the blind!
Question 2: Are we painting it or are you? You, just white. We'll bring the book because white has 11 shades. Ok. (I said I wanted Linen White eggshell from Benjamin Moore. They don't use "Benny Moore.")
Question 3/4: Are we taking off the popcorn ceiling? Yes. Do you want flat, eggshell, or satiny? Yes.
Then there is Frank. Bless his heart, he wanted to watch them take out the tub, (which we were going to use for a sandbox for the little cousins). Nope. It came out in about 10 pieces. The water cut off mystery is solved; no crawl space...probably.
Oh, but wait!First, I must introduce you to Jennings' Law, like Murphy's, but a distant cousin. We have NEVER made a major move without a glitch! We knew it was going to happen, but not where or when.
The plumber, headed to another job, stopped to see what supplies he'd need tomorrow. A conversationensued about the best access to the waterlines, and the next thing we knew, there were two holes in the floor where they discovered the sink has been draining into the crawl space for who knows how long.Now this feels normal! No need to be upset - isn't it better this was found now before the brand new tile and shower were installed? At least it will be right.
That is what I said out loud.
