On Wednesday, after we came home, Rik and I tried the new toilet with a ceremonial first flush of one piece of toilet paper. The "liquid only" button worked so well -- swoosh! and the paper was gone. (Of course, in the intervening days, we have also tried the "solid" button and it, too, works well.)
We have washed our hands in the sink, run a load of laundry or three, even filled the vanity with stuff so we could open and close the drawers to observe the slow close mechanism with glee.
Yesterday the tiler sealed the shower tile, and today we took our first showers! There is so much room in this new shower. The rainfall shower head sits high above our heads; no more ducking to make sure all the shampoo has been rinsed from your hair. I even shaved my legs and put my feet up, one at a time, on the little ledge built especially for this purpose.
The towels are warm from the heated towel rack and the floor is toasty under our feet. All in all, a huge success! (Now all we have to do is pay for it.)

ReplyDeleteenjoyed your blog very much and will be back
ReplyDeleteGood to make sure things work. When we redid our kitchen/laundry room, the plumber moved an outside faucet and apparently forgot to reconnect it. Because of all the rain we've had, it was only last week that I discovered this faucet is a sham! He's coming back.....
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing your thoughts. You might be interested in this new video detailing one woman’s struggle to overcome cancer. The short clip is an inspirational account of how a stage four breast cancer patient found the strength to fight the illness and to open up her own pilates studio. The link is below:
