A couple of weeks ago I finally got the glass-walls for the shower, it looks really good now.
And today I finally got the lights that I ordered last year already and the electrician put it in this morning. That means I can also take a shower / bath now when it's dark outside :-)
There is still missing the paint on the walls (above the tiles) and the ceiling, some problems with the grounding keep me from doing it, but that will be the last step that is totally on me and I am not dependent on any handy-men any more. Look yourself:
Searching for a 2 room appartment for rent to go back to my hometown Bayreuth I stumbled across this super-offer. Read the story about me finding a house of my dreams without searching for it - and the progress of the renovation.

New Bathroom - almost there
Tiling is done, bathtub is installed, heater under floor and on the wall are functioning...
Only the sink is still missing, I am hoping that it will work out before X-mas, is dependent on my carpenter now.
Bye bye for now - taking the first bath in my house now - after 2 years and 2 months of living in it :-)

New Bathroom - some more progress
Putting up the tiles in my bathroom will end soon. Tomorrow the electrician will come to put down the ground heater and the lamps. The day after I hope tiling will be finished.
And hopefully the water-taps will be installed soon - yes, I am STILL dirty :-)

New Bathroom - the progress
Well, it's been exactly 2 weeks now that the project "new bathroom" started. There are handy-men in my house every day, one knocks down tiles, one does some pipe installations, another one does the electricity...
In the past 2 days some of the new tiles were put on the walls and today finally the bathtub was installed...
But we are still far from me taking a bath - I am still dirty!

Finally, after 2 years - a new bathroom...
Remember, this is what it looked like when I took it over:
Can't wait to get a new bathroom. Haven't been taking a bath and no "comfortable shower" in 2 years. Will be my new wellness oasis within 2-3 weeks!
You will hear from me soon,
Steffi
So this week finally the tiles got knocked off, the bathtub got ripped out...
Sad thing: It will take for 2 weeks now until the company has time to put in my new bath, including toilet, new bathtub, an extra shower and a new sink. This is what it looks like right now for the next 2 weeks, no shower for me, all dirty...
You will hear from me soon,
Steffi

Project wastewater treatment system - DONE
This is the final (temporary) look of my terrace after the wastewater treatment system was built in. In a few years when I have saved up enough money again I will of course put some nice floor tiles on top.
| Guess I need to plant some shrubs now.... |

My new wastewater treatment system
I had this big construction going on over the past 3 days to build in the required septic system at my house. See the pictures, they speak for themselves...
| Hurra - it's coming! |
| The big digger |
| Uaaaah - tearing apart my terrace |
| Starting the big hole for the plant |
| There was all kinds of crap found burried in my yard |
| Sand delivery - right in front of my door |
| "The grave" for the plant. |
| There it comes... |
| And my friend "Hartl" from the company "KLARO" who sells these is also here. |
| In the evening after everyone left Rocki had to explore the new look of HIS yard. |
| Digging in the dirt |
| 2nd day, all pipes get connected |
| Hartl connecting the electricity and compressor. |
| 3rd day |
| Tearing my complete terrace apart to add some pipes for rain underneath. |
| We found so much odd stuff under the terrace |
| Uaaaaahhh.. |
| Help !!! |
| The big pipe, so the rain will never overflood my terrace again. |
| All holes closed again. |
| Rocks, for the temporary surface of my terrace. |
| .... starts looking good again |
| And finally they let ME do the last few hands on in the big digger!!!! |
| How much fun! |
| Successful end of the 3rd day... |
