We have a new shower, the above is a picture of the old one. For those of you who have visited, you know how small and yucky the bath-tub/shower inclosure we had was. When they redid these condos they had the bathtubs resprayed to cover them, but they did not do it correctly. The new layer was pealing off and once my shampoo fell and knocked a "hole" in the covering on the bottom. We could not even scrub it because bits came off. Something had to be done.

So, on October 5th we had the shower ripped out. For the next few days, while I was on fall break for the week, there were guys here ripping out the old and tiling the new space. We barely came out any father too, the tub/shower piece was just so far into the shower area we gained 4-5 inches just getting rid of that thing. The good news is, they did not have to remove the toilet to work on the shower. It would have sucked to not have a toilet in the house. There is one out by the pool though, so we would have been okay.

I felt bad for the guy who tore out the old tub/shower as it was sent in 5 inches of cement. I took pictures of all the cement when it was piled up in the garage, Mike the guy who dug out the cement had a tape measure so took a picture showing how thick the cement was.

The new shower is sooooo nice. They finished it all on Thursday the 8th and on Friday morning Ross got to use the new shower first. It is so hard to take a quick shower in the morning now. It is all white and blue glass tile and the shower head was moved up at leas 6 inches so Ross does not have to duck to wash his hair. Boo the cat even likes it!
