It is DONE and it is SO pretty!

Well, Friday evening I finally licked the drain problem (not literally, of course). With the advice from the plumber at work I solved all my leaky problems. I have been going down and feeling the connections all weekend and no drips yet (knock wood). The metal drain assembly really IS better. Worth the extra money.

Feeling jazzed by my drain fixing skills, I figured installing a TP holder would be easy peasy. Well, not so. The bracket on the TP holder was so flimsy it bent with the first attempt, and after that it was never right. I am not a strong person. I should not be able to bend the bracket with my bare hands. I fought with it for an hour; here I was in tears over this stupid TP holder when I've just replumbed my whole bathroom. I felt like an idiot. At least I got some nice pretty stripey towels.

Saturday, however, the Mister took me to Menards and we picked out a different holder; one with a better bracket design. We got a matching towel ring and we got both of those up without incident. Sunday he installed the mirror for me, and replaced the switch (it was ugly beige, of course).

But all that is behind me now; it is all done and it looks beautiful! It is actually pleasant to go in there now, it's so fresh and clean and nice. I am so proud of myself and I've learned so much!
