Funny side story on that bathroom remodel:
My neighbor’s son was looking for some side work and asked if I needed any labor. He’s a good kid without much by way of hand skills and this seemed like a good opportunity to teach him a couple things. I had him help me tape and paint, wire the lights, get that big ass vanity up a flight of stairs and get the sinks hooked up, hang the mirrors, set the toilet and had him cutting tile. He learned fast, saved me a pile of time, and cost me a few extra bucks and a couple cheeseburgers. Awesome.
On the last day I asked him to put in the towel hanger and toilet paper holder while I put some tools away. Notice anything?
God bless that kid. I came upstairs and he was so proud that he got them knocked out in record time. It took about 3 minutes before I could get my laughing under control enough to tell him he did great but was about to learn how to do some small drywall repairs and paint touchups. It took all of 20 minutes to get it right and we both had a good laugh afterwards.
