And in the "Hallelujah" department...

Finally.



Goodbye, porta-potty!



It's all coming together now!


This has been in a shipping box in the basement for so long, I'd nearly forgotten what it looked like. The surface it sits on will be covered with more of the little white pebbles.


Washer and dryer go under this counter, and a cabinet will go above the window.

Still to go:
  • Install bamboo floor
  • Install cabinet
  • Install faucets and showerhead
  • Paint and install pocket door
  • Have gas plumbing inspected
  • Cross fingers
  • Turn on gas
  • Have hot water
  • Clean up the enormous mess throughout my house and yard.



I'm back to living in my house, though I still have to shower at the gym or at my sister's. Monsoon will be able to come home in a few days, maybe in time for Christmas. And tomorrow morning? No staggering outside in the freezing dawn. Because I finally have a toilet again!

Yay!

Yay! Goodbye to the portaloo. I was a bit worried for you in the snow. (It has snowed once in Sydney in the last 40 years, so I tend to think of snow as exotic and hazardous).

And I have to join the chorus of ♥ for the sink. My SO just walked by and said 'What are you looking at? What a great sink!', so it is unanimous. :)

Such good taste, all around the world!

Glad you like. And I don't miss the snow. We're back to rain, in good old Yuletide fashion for the Pacific Northwest.
