Up at 6, expecting the remodeling crew at 7. Left for work at 8:30 without them here. When I checked the webcams at 10 they had the drop cloth down and were busy working in the bedroom, bolting the cabinet to the wall. Cabinet had been in the bathroom taking up too much space, and one had to close the bathroom door to open its doors. Nice ceiling-high cabinet, looks good anywhere.

Today Fuzzy was there with two others, one guy I had not seen before. Just for grins I turned on the mike on the bedroom cam, just curious if it worked. It did. Talk about being a fly on the wall. At that point Fuzzy was sitting on the bed supervising, new guy (who is a native English speaker, unlike the two who worked last week) was sipping on a soda, old Hispanic guy was on his knees by the sink finishing up grouting the tiles.

I watched them wrap up at about 3:30, they did a thorough job of cleaning up, and expected a call from Fuzzy, but no call.

Work was light, no meetings, not much progress on projects. Lunch at Togo's where there was limited by high quality eye candy. One of the sandwich makers has a true bubble butt, and her pants were cut to be up her butt crack. The only underwear which would have fit would be a thong. There was also a trim 30-ish redhead. One of the customers caught my eye, petite, wearing very high heels. She sat where I could see her, and didn't leave until I was wrapping up, which was nice.

Went home at 6 and looked for a note from Fuzzy, but there was nothing. Checked the work.

The tile work looks good, but he should have used white, not brown-stained off-white. Already it looks dirty.
Nice to have separate hot and cold taps in the shower, but they are installed upside down. Horizontal is off, down is on.
Shower head is great, non-restricted, forceful flow the way I like it, and at a comfortable height.
LED light in the shower is excellent, bright, but they wired it to the main switch by the door, instead of the one on the wall next to the shower. I'll ask him to fix that.
Toilet, as requested, is taller by about 2.5", but has one of those stupid mechanisms which need to be held down for a #2. Looks higher capacity, though.
Had to dust off the Thai lime tree and must it.

The main reason for this exercise was to have a usable shower in the master bathroom.

Wow, what an improvement. Our bath is very similar including the taller toilet, and a large shower that we ordered with our mobile home. I also insisted that they leave out the large garden tub. We put French doors to outside hot-tub where it would have been

Looks like they did a very good job.
