For the past little while, Krista has been trying to get us to move. Mike is slowing down a little, and she is worried that he might someday end up needing a wheel chair, and our house isn't really easy to get around in if you are in a wheel chair. Mike did NOT want to move and so he began thinking of ways to make our bedroom and his bathroom easier and more accessible. He figured out what he thought would work and was ready to get started. YIKES! It takes me a little longer to get used to the idea. I told him to wait until after the holidays to get started, but then after thinking about it decided that if we started now, when the holidays were over, we might be almost done, instead of just beginning. I texted Matt, and asked him if we could hire him to help us and he was so nice to say yes. He also has talked his amazing brother into being his assistant, and so they are going to town!
Oct. 19 the demolition began, he took the wall out between our bedroom and Krista's.
The next week he framed in the closet, moved the fan, put in some electrical outlets, and added can lights
He installed a pocket door at the end of the hall
Nov. 2 they tore apart the bathrooms. They took 16" out of my bathroom to give Mike's bathroom a little more room.
Nov. 9th, they worked on the plumbing and put a light in the showers and fans in the ceiling. and framed in the wall between the two bathrooms.
I should have taken a picture of the HUGE pile of garbage that came out of this small space!
We also took everything out of my sewing room, to get it ready for the new floor this week.
