Goodbye bathroom!

Andy has spent the last several days gathering quotes and talking to permitting. Ask us any day and our mind has changed. "We're getting permits for everything." "We're getting permits for nothing." "We're only permitting the structural stuff." Today, we're on the third day of thinking that we're permitting everything. So...maybe that'll stick.






When we removed the kitchen cabinets we discovered MORE linoleum under the existing two layers and half-inch plywood. More asbestos risk. The amazing news? After getting it tested, all six layers of linoleum are asbestos free. It's a miracle!







Andy and Mitch deconstructed the bathroom yesterday.

Then they dressed up to celebrate.

The house progress has moved a bit more slowly in these first weeks. Kimber came over to start scoping out electrical and planning what we'll be doing. We visited IKEA and discovered a sink and countertop that we both like.

We've had two family members go in to the hospital and then come out again. One has answers, the other doesn't. Our minds are occupied with family health and well-being. So, understandably, the house plays second fiddle.

Jessica's belly is finally making it's debut. She's entering week 15, and all is well in that department. Photos may be coming soon. Maybe.
