The shower in my bathroom is temporarily dead, thanks to the kitchen work. Supposedly they will have it all fixed up sometime tomorrow.

Oh, and the kitchen is filled with shear walls and other sundry supports because a major load-bearing beam was removed to make way for a new, much bigger (and up-to-code) load-bearing beam.

And they are getting ready to move some windows around, and move the electrical panel, and dig a hole under the breezeway to run new water and electrical lines (yes, They Really Are Tunneling Under My House!), and in general, there’s a lot going on.

But meanwhile the shower has a big gap in the tiles because they needed to move the drain.

There is an upside to this: the shower urgently needed re-tiling already. Now we won’t put it off.
