Yes, the bathroom remodel is still going on. I know you were all wondering about that. All, what, 2 of you that read my blog.
Part of what's taking so long is that Handyman only comes over to work on it when he feels like it or I remind him. The other part is all my fault. I just haven't felt like dealing with it. Depression can do that. I want to get it done, but I don't feel like doing what it takes to get it done. And frankly I'm pretty nervous about doing what needs to be done.
From the beginning I've said that I will do the tile around the tub, and the floor tile, by myself. Peel and stick floor tile can't be all that hard, and I've seen wall tile put up on TV shows. It always seemed like fun to try. But now when it comes down to actually doing it I'm scared to death!
What if I do it wrong? What if I get started and realize that I'm in way too deep and can't finish it? What if 3 months from now the tiles start falling off? All these things (dumb as they are) are keeping me from just plowing in and getting it done. Ugh! I know that if I just start doing it, it will be okay. Handyman said that he can always help me if I need it, my mom is willing to help me, there are bazillions of videos on YouTube that show how to do it. I just need the courage to actually do something. Then I will have a lovely new bathroom. Yay!
But where do I get courage from? I'm not sure. The desire to have the bathroom done is almost stronger than my need for courage. I just need to feel like I can do it. I haven't felt very good for quite awhile, but I'm starting to feel a little better, so maybe I'll be able to start on it soon. Maybe this weekend even...
Wish me luck.
