Bathroom countertop ordered

UPDATE: This never gets easier does it? My dad came over this morning to check the plumbing (before we install countertop). He wants to A) remove the wall to check out the insulation (we had these pipes freeze last year), and B) put in a new floor. This can't all happen before Friday morning, so we'll have to make the counter people do a semi-install, so we can remove the cabinet to put in a new floor... sigh.

Next March, we will celebrate 5 years in our home. When we first moved in, I secretly had my 5-year plan for the house, hoping to get all the interior remodeled in 5 years. We're almost there!

Back in the upstairs bathroom, we were still in need of a countertop. We were going to make do with the existing one but ... we already bought a new sink and the counter looks bad since we never covered it during any of the remodel.

So we found a local place that sells remnants for not just granite, but also quartz and we selected our bathroom countertop for $400 cheaper than our original quote for non-remnant. It should get installed next weekend around Matt's birthday! The only goofy thing with remnants is that you have to go looking through pieces for the right size and color, and then tagging it with your name (and they are big and can't really be moved).

Bathroom so far

In the meanwhile, we got a new shower curtain and rod (a curved one like at the Westin Hotels I used to stay at when traveling, it gives you like 6 inches more room, it feels so spacious), a new towel holder, and I got some photos of mine framed and hung.

While we're waiting for the counter, I'm hoping we can get our new doors and trim, and then we'll be D-O-N-E.
