The Shower's In!

Shower installed and septic hooked up. Plumbers now have to go away again until after the painter does his thing, then they'll come back to install bathroom fixtures and kitchen sink. Then the electrician has to come again to install an outlet, because the one we thought would work for the pump won't, and to finish the receptacles and lights downstairs, and then do the upper floors that are only roughed in. Then an inspector has to come give the nod of approval on everything thus far. Then we have to decide if we're doing the new septic this year or next.

The flooring will wait for a year or two. The kitchen will consist of roughed-in or homemade units until we can afford something permanent. No dishwasher or freezer in the budget. But hey, it's starting to look like a home!
