SHAZAM! I'M SO HAPPY!!! 💞 BATHROOM REMODEL

💞 SHAZAM...I'm so HAPPY THAT THE BATHROOM IS COMING ALONG.  Hot and cold water runs from the faucet now.  I can soak in the tub!!!  PRAISE THE LORD and THANK YOU HUBBY. 

OUR 1900 white porcelain enamel Clawfoot Tub 

with nickel plated feet.  

It has been a long time in the coming.  Over the last few years the Bath room was completely GUTTED.  Completely overhauled from top to bottom the ceiling, walls, floor, fixtures.  The whole shebang.  Hubby and I agreed to take a break on building the linen closet until after the SHE SHED is cleared out and bedroom furniture moved in so the pink bedroom can be changed into a TV room.  

CHRISTMAS will be here before I know it and the bedrooms need arranged before company arrives.  So the linen closet will be on pause so we can comfortably get the two bedrooms arranged and the living room being a clean parlour.  All the rooms being rearranged will take some time to repurpose.  I hope to have a Christmas tree in the front parlour this year.

Getting the large screen television out of the living room will allow the bay window to show off the cuteness of the living room.  Moving the tv out of the room and into a different room will help brighten up the living room and lift my spirits.    

Mentally, seeing the TV as you walk through the front door into the living room is a headache. The big black hole will disappear where we will have a formal parlor once more.  My psych will be better.  Know what I mean?  Having things just so-so in my COTTAGE makes me a HAPPY CAMPER and HOMEMAKER.  

I have had so many messes to deal with and it is about time that we have order like civilized peeps.  Going on a year since we made RETIREMENT COTTAGE our main residence.  One year! We knew we had an ongoing fixer upper COTTAGE when we moved in.  It didn't make it any easier for us as we have projects running out of our ears.  Squeezing into a small COTTAGE is full of awkward challenges right up front.  No denying this.    

We'll return to building the linen cabinet after the TV room is up 'n goin' and the front bedroom is organized as it has not been dealt with this entire year.  What a year it has been.  Truly one of a kind.  The outside of the tub may be painted a soft gray to cover some ill affects from the last 124 years of existence after we get this other stuff completed.  

Returning to living a simpler LIFE. 

SO THANKFUL that we have progress and can actually use the tub.  Running hot and cold water and flushing toilets are a blessing!  Amen.

SHAZAM.  I am really HAPPY,
