Flush with success

The bathroom remodeling project is finally done but it didn't occur to me until today that I don't have to put the same old gray shower curtain and towels in the guest bathroom. I can fall in love with whatever shower curtain I like and buy towels in coordinating colors! Couldn't have done that with the old purple bathroom.

And no sooner did the project get done than I received the invoice for the second half of the cost via email. We've waved goodbye to the old purple bathroom, the competent and efficient Bathroom Dude, and a big pile of money, and it didn't hurt one single bit. Felt great, in fact. And now I'll have an ideal answer when my colleagues return to campus next week and ask me where I went for my summer break: To the bathroom. Three cheers for a smooth and satisfying home improvement project!
