In December 2022, Desiree began stripping wallpaper from the three master bathroom walls that featured it. This marked the beginning of sporadic efforts to completely remodel the bathroom.
After Desiree had been working on the
wallpaper for a couple of hours, I checked on her progress. I found her picking
at the paper on the wall, with a pile of shredded pieces at her feet.
“Well,” I asked, “how is it going?”
“I want to go back to the
Philippines,” she answered.
Fortunately, Desiree pushed through
and finished stripping the wallpaper. Over the next two years, we painted the
walls, installed various wood trim features, replaced the flooring, and
installed a new toilet. Yesterday, the new vanity was set in place—completing
the project, except for two baseboard trim boards I must install today.
Both Desiree and I are happy to be
done and pleased with the end results. I am sharing a few images of the work.
