So I realize it’s been a while since I last posted. It seems that tennis elbow isn’t as innocuous an injury as I first thought. It’s actually been extremely, profoundly, annoyingly, and inexplicably painful as well as inconvenient. Unfortunately having a daytime desk job hasn’t increased my recovery rate, if anything it’s been quite the opposite. Although I am now (as a result) an accomplished ambidexter, I’m still fairly incapable of writing a full email without requiring an ice-pack and several pain killers. Hence my delay in posting.
Nonetheless, after taking over 2 months off reno-detail, and with J having amazingly taken over as lead renovator (as well as bag-carrier, dinner-maker, floor-cleaner, and teeth-brusher) in the house, I’m gaining strength and mobility and may even be able to paint the kitchen walls this weekend. Ya, you heard me, those puppies are ready for paint! Now, I’m not about to give it all away today, but wait until you see the drywalling that’s been going on here!). I’ll be following up with the final reno pics of the kitchen in the coming weeks, but for now, you need to get caught up on all the other action, namely the upstairs bath.
We finished the bathroom renovation a few weeks back and I’m SO EXCITED about it!! It feels like a real spa bath and the gigantic mirror now makes it feel twice as big. I was going to wait until I got my ‘real’ camera out to take some proper after pics, but I’m lazy and need to appease the guilt I’ve been carrying for not updating you all, so you’re going to get the ‘rough’ afters for now. Prettier ones will come eventually.
Here’s a reminder of what it looked like before.
And here are the after shots:
