So my sister Susan woke me up with a phone call to tell me Mummy is in the hospital. Some sort of diabetic problem- the first time she has been in the hospital since January 1965. Apparently she is feeling better already, but I still feel pretty useless. I am not sure whether she will be able to come out to Arizona in January as planned.
Doug came over this morning and we demolished my old shower.
Before.
We smashed the old tile and discovered that the wood beneath the drywall had termite damage. Good lord, there were several enormous roaches and a huge gecko living in the wall.
After demo work.
Doug will be treating the remaining wood, replacing the damaged wood, installing drywall, building a new curb, installing a vent and fan, and then doing the tile work in the next couple of weeks. In the meantime, I am now using the tub in the cat bathroom for the first time.
