m steps forward, n steps back

10:05am - Text message from Chad - "Call me as soon as you get a minute! We need to take down the chimney to run the vents and exhaust!"

10:14am - Text message from Chad - "Chimney is in your linen closet outside the bath, ready to get started! Your putting in a new furnace, right?"

10:17am - Text message from Chad - "Taking out the chimney is the answer, need your approval to get started!"

I went home at 10:30am, after my meeting, to empty to linen closet and see what was happening. They were busy tearing more stuff out. The plumber ordered the single piece bath, which came later in the day.


Here is a new bath tub...


A picture of the new flue.


A hole in the wall. My own personal elevator shaft to nowhere.


Behind the bath, you can see the little window.


The little window ended up being 3 inches or so lower than the top of the bath. This is not a good thing. What you see in this little picture is the effort to move the window higher in the wall so the bath can go in tomorrow...

Anyway, I think we made progress, it will seem like it tomorrow if they get the tankless water heater in or the bath in so we can put the wall up. We will have to see what happens. Maybe I will stay home tomorrow, make a 4 day weekend of it, and see what happens.
