New Bathrooms


 Several years ago, we turned a large half bath on the first floor into a full bath instead of re-doing our upstairs baths.
 Finally, we have finished our upstairs baths.
This "guest bath" had been the girls' bath for many years---it had been used and abused.  Everything was chipped or broken, so it had to be gutted.  We even painted the vent fan cover and replaced the wall vent and floor molding.  The toilet paper holder and a newly cut mirror are the only remnants from the old bathroom.  I am awaiting my daughter decorators to update towels, shower curtains etc.







Our master bath mostly needed to have the vanity area replaced since we had done the shower several years ago.
We moved the sink to the center, raised the cabinets higher, so again had to have the mirror re-cut. We decided to add a beveled frame around it for a little pizazz.  We also added a cabinet over the toilet in the shower room.  We are very happy with the  results!

Between Two Worlds

Most of my life, I've considered it fortunate that I was just ahead of the Baby-boom. Generally, the Baby-boomers were born between 1946 and 1964 after the fathers returned from World War II. It was a huge population explosion that has reverberated through American society.

This blog will be part history, part memories, part reflections of a retired teacher, but active "Senior". I have always felt like I straddled two generations forming a bridge. Sometimes I think like a baby-boomer, but sometimes I'm locked into my parents' Depression era thinking. I'm a dichotomy of two eras. But, I'm always ready to try something new---so here I am dipping my toes in the water of Blogworld.
