'Genial' Harry Grout

This weekend Mrs P set me to work on one of the upstairs bathrooms which is now to be known as the Girls' bathroom. First job yesterday was to regrout the tiling around the bath/shower. Mind numbingly tedious that's the only phrase to describe the job of removing the old grout. Thankfully the tedium was removed by a trip to HomeDepot to get some new grout, only to "drop" $600 on new locks and door handles as well. I wish this was all but we still need another 10 handles for the remaining doors.

Today's work was to paint the remaining walls in a pink that resembles Pepto Bismol, rehanging the mirror, constructing a flat pack bathroom cabinet and installing the 12 new locks and door handles.

The kids arrived back today having spent the past 10 days in North Carolina with Grammy. It's good to have them back and they LOVE their new bedroom and bathroom. Pics to follow soon, I did take some before they got home and messed it all up.
