I think we should instead bet on how many total days.

I'm in at 11.25

Blue star for ellebee for the Outdoor Board reference. ...

I'm going with 14.50 since he has that wedding plus the work after the countertops are installed.

Depending on if he is a member of the wedding party, I am considering changing that bid to a month for post-bachelor party recovery.

This is getting too complicated!

I will be using his original post as the start date and time.

Ok, 14.5 days for me then.

I've never had any of those energy drinks. Are they helpful when it comes to powering through something like this? I had to take steroids once for a lung infection and wow, I was pinging off the walls for three days but when they were finished it was awful.

That would be correct. Sounds like the OP was demo day.

I think the purpose of the energy drinks is to make sure his heart explodes by day 5 so he doesn't have to finish.

What is "finished"? Usable or all finishes installed?

I "finished" my remodel in about a month, but trim and latches on the pocket doors took about 6 months.

Finished is 100%.

We have gutted 2 houses and never finished anything in a week except a 1/2 bath that didn't need any plumbing work.

2 days since the last update from the OP. Let's face facts people. He is never coming back to let us know what happened. He is either in a mental institution, interviewing contractors or dead. It's a sad day.

21 days from start to finish.

OP's wife better enjoy bathing in the guest bathroom and sleeping in the guest room. Sounds like OP will be sleeping on the couch.

I think we should share our favorite memories of OP. I remember the time he had to break through 4 inches of mortar. He didn't let that break his spirit!

If he starts a Facebook page titled, "The Bathroom Chose Me," then we know we are in for a loooooong ride.

I liked how he wanted to remodel a bathroom in a week.

I member how he was a master at Sketch-up. I would give anything for just one more rendering.

And we'll also know that not only did he not really plan to do this in a week, he hired someone to do it, if he has a bathroom at all.

Today (Wednesday) was supposed to be the shower walls, a 'simple subway tile,'

Sigh. If only that were true...

(cue music)

Can it be that it was all so simple then
Or has time rewritten every line
If we had the chance to do it all again, tell me, would we, could we?

Mem'ries may be beautiful and yet
What's too painful to remember
We simply choose to forget

I CAN only imagine OP compiling pics and detailed notes as he labors along, excited about finishing the project and posting the success on texags.... he opens thread and says WTF.... have you all been talking about for 7 days....

Hell, we already have people singing at his funeral.... I reckon we should open the will and divide the estate amongst us appropriately or at least hve a lawyer chime in so we can fight over who gets the old valences.
