Saturday:
We got up early to finish gutting out the ceiling and ripping up the floor to our upstairs bathroom and then took all the debris to MOSA. On the return trip to the house we witnessed the local snowplow take out our mailbox. If it weren't for bad luck, we'd have no luck at all. Calling to complain to the Department of Public Works really got me nowhere, so shoving the mailbox out of mind we then had a very expensive (but exciting!) shopping excursion at Lowes. We purchased our tile, the vanity, faucet fixtures, the medicine cabinet and all the other building supplies. The lighting fixture we wanted was busted and they only had one in stock so we forewent that purchase. When we got home my dad came over and helped change out the piping in the bathroom as the current pipes were a.) 50+ years old, and b.) were installed with all too many "unions" in the floor of all places.
