Wooohooo! We finally finished setting the tile today. What a long long long long job that was. Now it needs a good 24 hours to dry so we can start grouting. I'm so proud of Shawn, who generally loathes this kind of do-it-yourself stuff and resists it at every turn. Throughout this whole project he's been positive, cheerful and focused. Kind of miraculous. And now that this has gone so well he's realizing that there are many other projects around the house we could do ourselves instead of hiring people. Which means getting things done faster because it will cost so much less. So it's been a very good experience.
