Oh Joy! Memories. The bathrooms here got rehab'd completely. Other than the size, not too big not too small I hated our bathrooms.
And yes a sledge hammer was used to remove the walls and cast iron bathtub. The walls are now 3/4 white tile throughout the entire bathrooms including showers. Ugly shower doors gone. Everything went down to the studs, copper pipes installed and re-wallboarded.
All new fixtures, cabinets etc. And a jacuzzi tub (that was used far more in the first year than it has been ever since.) The floor is a classic black and white tile. I went for everything to be timeless. I can change out shower curtains, towels and decor but never want to live through bath remodels again, that was not fun. And costly.

PS- if you want a new toilet you don't need a sledge hammer. Just tighten the nuts at the bottom and eventually it will just crack. *ducks and hides*

I'll keep that in mind. I have bathroom tile, on the floor and hate it. Don't know what I would change it to.

I've never had a Sleepy Hollow waffle. I thought about it in June but we had an ice cream cookie sandwich instead.

I'm sure that was much better, especially in June.

Not exactly sure, but, DS's burrito, DWifey's enchiladas, SIL's tacos, and my tacos all had Hatch Chilis in them. Spiiiiicyyyyyyy, but, darn tasty...!

Glad you had a nice birthday celebration, Happy Belated Birthday.

That's quite an unnerving thing to happen so soon after getting home. Did you find out why they were chasing the man and did he get caught?

I wish I knew, no one seems to have heard what happened in the end. This little town likes to keep these things silent.....Except for warnings......then nothing....no it's all over you can come out now, just nothing....

 

[betty rose]

time to go grocery shopping.....later to all you folks, probably tomorrow for me,

Tomatoes and peppers, lots of peppers(bell and 2 types of hot) because I'm not sure how much longer they will be in season, eggplant and lots of that for the same reason, arugala, dandelion greens, beets, green and yellow squash(surprised it's still holding on), 10 very large butternut squash for $10, a couple of pears, yellow beans, carrots, potatoes,onions and a 1/2 bushel each of Crispin and Jonah Gold apples. guess what I'm doing today. i also got a nice surprise at the fabric store fleece was on an even better sale than I thought it was and my coupons were for 20% off sale price guess I'll be prewashing all of that today. We had lots of fun and James was very helpful picking apples, M not so much, he's not a fan

Oh my.
Our high yesterday was only 82, and only 75 today.
This winter weather is killin' us...!!!

You never know--they just might!

Until it involves food...

"Yep, you're ugly, but, I'll surely eat that if you don't want it!"

 

[donaldtoo]

I agree!!! Last night was the first time mine ran during the evening.

Woof.
Our AC is running right now.
Not for the heat anymore, but, the humidity is nuts...!

 

[donaldtoo]

OK, time for a TSSFFBR...
It's not quite 5 'o'clock here yet, but close enough...and will be by the time I get back...!

See y'all in a bitty-bit...!!!

It's been raining/drizzling on and off over the past 36 hours here. Tomorrow night has a possible chance of icy mix. Too soon!!!

My sympathies to you. We will be in the high 50's but sunny, still okay for a walk with the dog.

Yes, I noticed it was a bit brisk here in NC this afternoon as well. Dropped to around 72 degrees. It's supposed to be in the 60's tonight... I just might freeze in one spot.

Last elementary school dance I have to go to was tonight. (The next is a daddy-daughter dance.) Can't say I'll miss these.

I'm a big fan of the long tiles that look like planks of wood. I want. Just never found a place to put them.

Pictures don't do them justice. Many look like wood but are ceramic tile. I kinda like the idea of the look of wood in
some areas but the ease of cleaning ceramic tile. Someday I'll the light bulb will turn on and I'll put some in.

Call me a purist but the building is not 1776 feet tall

The building structure isn't 1776 ft, but the spire, which is considered in measuring the height of a building, brings it up to 1776.
