After
months of settling into the ‘glorified shed, trying to create order out of
chaos and tweaking our renovation plans time and again, work has finally
commenced on what is destined to become the bathroom.
I look forward to showing you a picture of our finished bathroom, instead of someone else's! |
The
one-time workshop office has long been cleared of its former contents, and the
hard graft has now begun. As I write this post, the walls are being insulated
and lined and plans have been made for the electrics to be re-routed. The
plumber has been booked to attend to all the pipework and install our chosen
suite. I now feel that things are really moving.
It will be
such a luxury to have a bathroom to call our own, as for several months now we
have been surviving with a washbasin and toilet, popping to my mother-in-law’s
for baths and showers. The day I get to use our own bathroom for the first time
will surely be worthy of a celebration!
Of course,
the big question is, ‘Will it all go according to plan?’ We have already learnt
that the statement, “It will take twice as long and cost twice as much as you
first think,” is not just an ugly rumour.
Setting
that aside, it’s an exciting time, and I’m looking forward to all our plans
taking shape!
