Yesterday I went golfing with my buddy JC out in Lemont at a course called Ruffled Feathers. Probably 4-5 years ago, it was a pretty upscale course, and it's still good, but after a management change, the course has run into some disrepair. There are potholes on the cart paths that would make the city of Chicago proud. And the sand in the bunkers more closely resembles dirt than sand. Both are fixable issues, but they detract from the overall experience, which for $90 should be pretty good.
Bathroom update: still not done. We are now at week 8 and the bathroom isn't done, but the finishing touches are being applied. MLM is painting now and then the fixtures go on: toilet, vanity, closet, towel bars, toilet paper holder, etc. Hopefully by the end of the week we'll be good to go.
This is where we are at today. MLM's leg is in the picture on the left. The one missing tile is where the TP holder fits. Had to go online to find a special switch plate cover for that light switch.
Here's the back wall with tile going up about 3-4'. The tile goes all the way around the room.
The shower, which I've already used BTW. The shower curtain had to be taken down while MLM finishes his work though.
Here's the new ceiling fan. It's bigger and stronger than the old one and will have a nightlight as well as a regular light. Not too shabby.
This picture is a little old as well (the ceiling is all painted now), but it shows the floor tile....at least most of it.

The bathroom's coming along nicely. Love the tile!
how much does it cost to redo your bathroom in general? Looks like a lot of work.
Gee MLM not done yet. Who would have thought it?
I'm waiting for LL to go postal and tile MLM's body into your wall a la Poe.
Alexis, the cost can really vary. I'm putting in a fair amount of tile which was the bulk of the cost $1,500 for labor. The tile itself isn't cheap either, another several hundred. Then you can spend anything you want on fixtures and vanities: from a few hundred to a few thousand. It's tough to say. Mine is going to be about $6k.
