Bathrooms (Home Construction)


We have a pretty large task in store for us. The previous homeowners did an incredible job of turning real simple do-it yourself projects into wreckless patch-jobs.

We plan on renovating our current full bathroom and adding another smaller bathroom for the purpose of adding value and giving Tony someplace to get ready for work as I hog the main bathroom.

The current bathroom situation is a disaster. Poor ventilation, humidity clings to the walls and the bathtub has an inch of water that does not drain but is under the bathfitter. The previous owners put a bath covering over the old tub and now water seeps in between the tub and the covering. It's like showering while standing on a water bed.

We're going to go to Home Depot with our measurements and see if we can create a nice clean feel in each room.

The Bucket List



As an Anniversary present, Nicole purchased a flight lesson for me at Fitchburg Regional Airport. 

This was very exciting to me and because danger is my middle name it served as an opportunity to cross another item off of the bucket list. I can assure you that I bent over and kissed the ground upon my terrifying and turbulent descent to the ground.

Prior to this lesson, I had high hopes of taking flight lessons on a quest to receive my private pilots license. The plane (Cessna 172), weighed about 900 lbs and you could tell. It took about 3 seconds from leaving the runway to experience the sort of turbulence that can hang a plane in a tree. Very scary!!! Once we got to 3,000 feet above sea-level, I reluctantly took over the planes controls and practiced 45 degree bank turns over Route 2.
