They watch too much HGTV. Surprised they didn't make a stupid wet room
The wife did. She's the one that changed a wall in the bathroom 3 times and we still ended up tearing it out. The shower is a doorless though. She also wanted these stupid little arches in a couple hallway openings.
Ask the man of the house, you will just get a smirk. I did that on an appraisal when I saw one. The guy smiled, paused, and said to make sure my back get washed.

Yeah, the wildest ones are where there are like 8 body jets also. Like you don’t have the extra minute to move forward and backwards for the other parts.

Also, showering with your spouse is not fun. When you are married you just wanna get cleaned up.
These will be just basic showerheads. Actually surprised there aren't any fancy fixtures like a handshower or overhead rain fixture. There's not even a bench. That could be added later though. If they want to shower together and/or get freaky, I still don't see the need for 2.

This couple bought this house for 500k and want to sell it for 800k in 2 years.

We bought this shower fixture when we remodeled our bath, and I love it. Easily adjustable height and multiple spray types...and you can do hand held if you want. 20240309_085938.jpg

We had something a little similar when our kids were young for their bath. When our daughter got older she wanted a more traditional shower head for their bath so I changed it out.

Oh man, I'll NEVER go back to a fixed shower head!

I don't know if you can tell from the picture, but the shower head holder slides up and down that curved bar to put it higher or lower. So it's like an adjustable but fixed shower head.

Ordered new Ear Pads Cushions for my Sony noise cancelling earphones yesterday afternoon while watching hoops. They were delivered this morning. Getting pretty spoiled with this.

I do not like feeding the dog (which I didn’t want in the first place) food from either the table or parts of snacks that people may be eating. The MIL does it non stop and it really irritates the hell out of me. Now the dog goes nuts whenever someone is eating.

You are the owner, she is not. Tell her that we don't feed the dog human food and you would appreciate it if she honored your rules. If she argues, let her know that it isn't negotiable. It is your dog and you are looking out for the dog's health.

People can be so rude sometimes.

I already set the clocks in the kitchen ahead and my alarm clock as well. Any others should change automatically.

My wife would rip me a new one. She won’t say anything to her mom although her mom treats her very poorly compared to her brother. Since she’s in the care center, the wife basically says she can do no wrong.

Remember this is BCs MIL, I don't think listening to BC is her strong point.

Had my audio test on Friday. Had a lot of false positives, which isn’t good. The only thing that really bothers me is the pulsing noise. Have a follow up appointment on Thursday. We’ll see where that goes.
Have you thought you could hear/feel your pulse, or rather your heart beat in your ears? How does it compare to that?

Dr. asked me to tell him when heard the pulse while he had the stethoscope taking my heart rate. Pretty much the same.

I like cats a lot but they are the true sociopath in the animal/pet kingdom.

One hangs around my dad's and my dog freaks out at it sometimes, and the cat just sits there and calmly stares at it to a point where the dog looks terrified.
