first few things

Jen approved me re-doing the powder room…because there is a smell in there that makes us keep the door closed and makes it not worth using. So we went to Lowes and picked up a few things. We started with waterproof flooring, some toilet parts (wax ring, floor bolts), a vanity with the sink, and 3 new toilet seats for each of the bathrooms.

During our home inspection, one of the things that didn’t work was the shower in the main bathroom. No water movement through the shower. He said it was the shower control knob. This was not a big deal because we can shower in the master bedroom bathroom and I like epsom salt baths. I decided to troubleshoot it anyway…because I could! Turns out it was a clogged showerhead. While we were out we also stopped at HomeDepot to pick up the new shower head. I wanted the same one that we had in the old house (that I brought with us)…also got a curved shower curtain rod! I have gotten spoiled!

There are locks everywhere but there is only 1 key, so changing out the locks or having them re-keyed will probably be a project in itself! Since the shed is stand alone and a very easy fix, I changed out that lock. My bike and some tools are out there. Next up is the garage door lock! (there isn’t one). The garage door also needs a new door seal and possibly replace the springs (and if we ever put the car in there, we will need a garage door opener).

The spare bedroom now has a bed. I will eventually hang the bedroom TV in there. I decided not to put it in the master bedroom because the only time is it on is when Jen is sick and wants to do a “True Blood” marathon. Now she can be sick in there! HaHa!

One of the most frustrating things about moving is now matter how organized you THINK you are, you are NOT! Seek and Find is a real pain in the ass! It only took 3 weeks to find the lag bolts and remotes for my main TV.

Now I can relax a little!
