Transcript
I know my last update, we lost a lot of money for a little tile situation, but we are on the up and up. And no, we haven't gotten a refund yes. But I do have exciting news about something else. We finally started our shower. Shower. My original plan for the shower was to do the leash for the whole bathroom, but after getting it rendered, I best felt a little underwhelmed. And no, I came up with this new plan that it needed an accent wall. So back in August, I went searching for this accent wall and I came across this marble slab. I don't think Nick and I have chosen a material as fast as we've chosen this marble slab. Something about it, it just felt perfect. No, flash forward to last month, we finally purchased a slab. We sent it to someone who was helping us install it. Cut it. He loaded it. He brought it to the house and it got installed. This wall is being installed in a few pieces. The first piece being the biggest one. And because we want it perfectly in line with the ceiling, this is the first piece I have to go in. We do have two more pieces coming in next week to finish this wall off, but it went really well. And we also got the niche put in. It's missing some shelves right now, but that'll come later.
