DAY 11: I find myself in a very strange land ruled by very tiny people. They have kidnapped my sleep and they have a list of demands: it includes clean clothing, Sponge Bob and obscene an quantity of...
HELP! Ive been hog-tied and taken hostage by my ordinary everyday grown-up life. PSA for anyone who isnt sure: three kids is a lot of kids. A lot. Of kids. Write that down. I havent painted or planne...
DEAR CANADA, I love your house bloggers. I love your HGTV shows filmed in Toronto. I love your Royal Canadian Mounted Police. I love your bacon and your ginger ale. I do not love your pedestal sinks....
AND Im still waiting for the Bathroom Fairy to flitter by softly in the night with her sweet, sweet tiling wand and finish the bungalow bathroom for me. But Im not going to hold my breath because I d...
Happy Friday! You and I have some catching up to do on the glacially slow project progress in our bungalow bathroom. Cue the fog machine and the flashback music: The bathroom floor tile was installe...
Say that 9 times fast. Then get your hot little hands on some 4 x 8 plywood sheets and cut them (or have them cut for you) into planks. To determine the width of your planks it will be necessary to d...

Dont let the title fool you - this is not just another bathroom pity party but also an apology. Id like to offer my sincere apologies to anyone and everyone who is now terrified of remodeling their o...
Weve reached the interminable DURING phase of the bathroom remodel. You know, the looooong part in the middle when the excitement of starting a new project has worn off; but, its way too early to get...
The shipping box is stamped: but if you know me then you know where this is headed, dont you? [sigh.]
I have something that I need to share: Demo is done and drywall is up. Boy, THAT was quick. Mostly because weve brought in a contractor to rebuild the bombed out scary shell that used to be a bathroo...
Would right now be a wildly inappropriate time to say something like "I miss the old bathroom?" Concrete proof that the electricians who wired this house were exactly as drunk as weve always ...
I was so afraid of what we would find behind the shower walls. I think the MIA contractor was also, and thats why he did not want the job. So when the last of the walls came a-tumbling down I was sca...
So sorry to keep you waiting. Weve been tied up in a knot by 3 kiddos and a holiday weekend topped off with literally hours of obsessive toilet shopping. The gold medal in distracted multi-tasking w...
