I do know most of you in all probability learn that title and thought, “Sneak peek?! I don’t need a sneak peek! You stated you’d present us the entire completed toilet this week!” Ugh. I do know. 😩😩 And I actually thought I may make that occur.
I’ve tried twice now to get footage of the completed toilet, however every time I do, I discover one thing else that I forgot to try this hadn’t made it onto my ultimate punch checklist.
My plan was to stand up this morning, put Cooper out in his yard for some time, then carry him in, clear the ground one final time (we’ve had loads of rain, so each time he is available in currently, he leaves massive muddy paw prints), after which anticipate the right lighting (in all probability mid-morning or mid-day, as a result of within the afternoon and night, the sunshine streams by way of the again door an excessive amount of to get good footage), after which spend the afternoon enhancing and getting my submit prepared to indicate y’all the entire earlier than and after tomorrow.
I did a few take a look at pictures, and that’s once I observed that I had ignored yet one more factor. This outlet has no cowl on it.
After which I spotted that the HVAC vent has no cowl on it both.
I don’t have both of these issues readily available, so I’ve to make one ultimate grasp bathroom-related journey to House Depot to complete up these final two gadgets. I’ve been working on this toilet for therefore lengthy that I had grow to be so used to seeing them like this. I had stopped truly seeing them. They solely grew to become apparent to me once I took some take a look at pictures of the lavatory that I believed was completed (apart from a grimy ground that must be cleaned), and I observed them within the pictures.
So my ultimate punch checklist — the checklist of 30 or so ultimate small issues to try this had been all checked off — now has two ultimate gadgets added to it. I’m hoping I can get these executed right now (together with cleansing the ground), after which get footage tomorrow, however at this level, I provide no ensures. Life appears to maintain getting in the best way.
I did wish to replace you on the choice I made concerning privateness with this door…
Proper now, it’s all fogged over as a result of we had chilly climate final evening and this morning, and it’s heat inside our home. So what you see there may be simply condensation. Facet word: Why we’re getting condensation on double-pane home windows is one thing I can’t clarify. Each the door and the window in right here had been fogged over this morning.
However so far as privateness with the outside door, I made a decision to not do something. I’m leaving the glass as is.
I made a decision that I actually like having the ability to see out of it unobstructed, and once I do want privateness, it takes about 5 seconds to get the little curtain and magnetic curtain rod out of the drawer and pop it onto the door. Then once I now not want privateness, I can take away the magnetic curtain rod and put the rod and curtain again into the drawer. It’s fast and simple!
However anyway, I promised y’all a sneak peek, so right here’s one in every of my favourite views of our finished-for-the-most-part grasp toilet. I attempted to get low sufficient in order that the uncovered outlet doesn’t present, however you possibly can nonetheless see it. Please kindly ignore it. 😃
I’m so enthusiastic about how this toilet turned out. I nonetheless can’t imagine it took me a year-and-a-half to complete. That appears ridiculous to me. However a minimum of it’s completed. And simply as quickly as I can get an outlet cowl, a vent cowl, and get Cooper’s muddy paw prints cleaned up from the ground, I’ll present you the entire thing.
