Friday

I have to admit that I have only gotten in one little old run this week (yesterday). We are in the process of having one of the bathrooms remodeled. I mean gutted down to nothing. There have been 8 workdays so far and it's starting to take shape. This is what it looked like before:

Some of our friends don't understand why we wanted to do this..on the surface it might not look that bad, but trust me it is! This is the upstairs bath that we all use the most. The tub was broken, the shower was small & a pedestal sink is not very practical for a family. Oh, and did I mention how much I despise the blue tile? We have lived in this house for about a year and a half and I haven't done one thing in there. I didn't paint, I didn't hang a picture or a curtain. The only thing I did was clean it. I just hated it.

Here is what it looked like after it was gutted:

Here is the general look we are going for:

We thought this shower/tub side-by-side would work well with the space. I wanted to make room for a bigger vanity, but it was kind of hard with the angled ceilings. We are moving the vanity to the wall where the tub used to be plus making space for some open shelving. I'm pretty excited because it is all my design. We did run into a slight issue with the lighting yesterday, but it's nothing that can't be changed. We have a great contractor and I'm more than pleased with his work as well as his work ethic. Great guy!

Anyway, I have been slightly obsessed with this project, but trying to not push my running aside too much. As I said, I did get out yesterday and I plan on going for a longer run tomorrow morning.

Remember the giveaways that I posted? I actually won the Progresso Soup package which included a Biggest Loser dvd..I can't wait to receive it. Thank you so much Happy Runner!

I think I'll take some more bathroom pics at the end of the day. I will try to post them tomorrow so you can see the progress..Happy running this weekend :)
