Dang nabbit! The project had momentum again, I was getting things done, enjoying being over at the house, and then broke my ankle. I mean, really?? All I did was roll my ankle off a 3/4 inch difference in flooring. I heard a pop and it dropped me to the floor. I yelled a lot for the next several minutes, and hauled out choice swear words I haven't heard in a while. Haven't met with the orthopedist yet, don't know what I'm in for, but I choose to believe it will heal swiftly and well. I'm baffled though: how did I attract this?
so: remodel lesson: if you cut away a portion of flooring, drop back in a scrap of wood to keep the floor level even. Before we framed the utilibath wall, I cut out a swath of vinyl flooring and the subfloor sheathing underneath to expose the car-decking foundation floor. In the doorway section of that wall, there's a 3/4 inch drop from flooring to car-decking, and I just rolled into it.
I was unpacking my new toilet! So happy it arrived! As soon as I can set it on the drain and bolt it down, I can have a working toilet in that house for the first time since March!
This is just a brief detour ... this is just a brief detour ... this is just a brief detour ...
