Week 25 was a big week. Through no fault of my own, I didn't hit my goal of getting the bathroom 100% usable by Friday, but A LOT of work got done, so overall I'm pretty happy.
So my big goal was to get all three plumbing pieces functional by Friday evening when family arrived for the weekend. I got the toilet and shower done, but the sink was not installed because my countertop guy screwed me. Long story, and I don't feel like getting into details, but he basically went MIA on the day he was supposed to do the install. Because of that, I obviously couldn't have a sink without a countertop.
So here's pics and a recap of what got done.
Week 25 (7/12 - 7-19) Part 1

-Testing paint colors. First color we chose was too tan/brown, so we got two more greys to try. Liked them both, so we are going to use both.
-Building the vanity cabinet. First the carcass, then the base, test fitting the carcass in place, building the face frame, then finally the face frame installed and cabinet secured.
- Wifey painting. She paints pretty dang well.
-Using laser level to mark the walls for wainscot
-Installing waisntcot paneling and top cap. Wanted to get the two big walls done in the toilet room before installing the toilet.
-Some pics with paint on the walls. Decided on the darker grey for the toilet/shower room because it matches the grout well. Went with the lighter grey for the sink room because we also liked the color and didn't want that room too dark. You can see them both side by side in the last pic.
-Trimming out the angle stop and installing the toilet.
Week 25 (7/12 - 7/19) Part 2

-Door trim reinstalled and doors hung
-Caulked bottom of toilet to floor.
-Installed some towel shelves above toilet.
-Final walk through of what the space looked like before family arrived and where I quit for the week. Got a lot done, but I would have really like to have the sink in.
This coming week: hopefully get the countertop installed (already talking to a new guy), install faucet and all plumbing for sink, and work on trim work (wainscot, window trim, baseboards,etc).
