Thanks for the help and numbers of what I did

I compiled some numbers of what I did during the remodel that may interest some of you, this is just based on my personal calculations so just imagine what my Dad and others contributed:

Cases of soda consumed: 7 (168 cans) - I rarely drank carbonated drinks prior to the remodel but you've gotta do what you've gotta do.  Just for the record I did not actually drink every can personally but I did make a significant dent in them. Lloyd put it best when he said, "this job has driven you to drink".

Days worked on this project: approximately 114 days, I didn't keep track of some of my shopping days and computer research days early on in the remodel and I took a long break after the flood to emotionally recover and prepare for the holidays.  

Hours worked: 874 total hours over 7 months, this does include the time I spent driving in the car.

Miles driven: 7446 miles, YIKES!!  That is 391.9 gallons of gas for my mini van.

Trips to the Hardware store: 58, this is just my trips, my dad also made stops as needed.  We really did try to plan out what we would need so that our trips would be limited but you can only do so much.  At least both Lowes and Home Depot are about 2 blocks from each other and less then 10 minutes from our remodel (it was a dream).

Trips to the Habitat for Humanity Restore: 16 stops, but only 8 times did I successfully find what we needed.  I was lucky that I have one about 5 minutes from my home and the Denver store is on my route to the remodel site.

Plugs/outlets purchased and installed: 44 (6 were GFI's)- due to electrical problems even the plugs I did not install I had to pull out and check.  My opinion is that the electrical turned out to be one of the biggest problems we faced at the apartment, 2nd only to the broken water pipe that flooded the apartment.

Trips to Burger King: None for me, but my Dad and Lloyd went nearly every day for lunch during the last few months.  I estimate they went more than 40 times and had a regular order they placed every time.  I have assured them that there is a Burger King not far from my house if they ever come work up here.

The apartment remodel would never have been completed without the help of many hard working hands:
Lloyd (our general handyman) who put up with my questions and intrusions on his work space.
My mom Lois who watched my kids more often then she ever planned.
My sweetheart James who made his work schedule adjust to allow for the days I didn't time myself well to pick up our kids, or just felt I was needed to do "a little bit more", and for being the best dad ever!
Laurel for her design suggestions and even more for her emotional support, i made a lot of calls to her over the 7 months.
Mira for her hospice care skills for both Mom and Dad as they recovered physically during  this remodel, and as being a verbal go between as needed.
My kids for going to work at the apartment "just one more time", and because "you need to learn to do hard things".
And especially for my Dad who had endless patience for my questions and pushed me to step up and do more than I thought I could!

Top floor walk through

Now onto the upstairs. when you reach the top of the stairs and look straight ahead you see a shared bathroom. This room was a pretty significant transformation.  Because of the amount of use this bathroom has seen over the years it was in very bad shape.  Here are some before photos.

Yuck!!

Now the transformation.  

The tile we used is the same one we used throughout most of the house.  We also choose to install a beautiful jetted tub.  For some of you that vanity make look familiar and that is because my parents have the same one in their main floor powder room, I picked it out for their house too.  This bathroom is large but there is not much width for a vanity so this fit the bill perfectly, I was excited when I found it at the Habitat restore.  And yes that great light was another spray paint redo with new $2 light shades.  The mirror was left over from the bathroom set we purchased for the basement bathroom and since that cabinet was ruined in the flood and a new mirror came with the new cabinet I purchased it worked perfectly in this room.  Total estimated cost for a new bathroom (I have to go off the prices my dad said he paid for some items, I don't have every receipt): $1079.  Not too bad for a new bathroom including the towel bars and toilet paper holder (we did keep the original toilet).

There are 4 bedrooms on the top floor and then the amazing master bathroom.  The master bathroom was pretty narrow and had a tub/shower as well as only a single sink in it.  My dad had the idea to widen the bathroom a few feet which made the neighboring bedroom a bit smaller but it is still a good sized bedroom.  The difference in the bathroom is significant, it is sometimes hard to imagine how much 2-3 feet can change things.  Most of the actual bathroom layout stayed exactly the same except we moved the shower to the right wall and just closed off the left end.  We did debate putting in some shelves in that space but because it sat right above the toilet which seemed an awkward storage space and was more work for us we just closed it off.  

Some before pictures.  

It had the same brown cabinet as the rest of the house had, and a builder grade mirror.  There was also a long wood curtain rod hung as a towel bar.  It seems like a good idea to use a curtain rod as a towel bar except that the paint peels off with all of the moisture.

 Now the after pictures.

If you are trying to imagine the original width of the bathroom, look at the  bulk head location and that is where the wall was located.

Hanging 2 mirrors even with each other is much harder than you think it would be, especially when you take into account walls that are not straight themselves.  You can't really tell in this picture but the plug on the right is a little to close to the sink so the mirrors couldn't be hung centered over the sinks or under the lights.  Nothing seems to be simple in this bathroom.

Did you notice the double shower heads?  They are set at different heights to be his and hers.  I found the beautiful sinks on a great clearance, however I soon learned that buying faucets for sinks with wide set handles are significantly more expensive then your typical faucets.  It also turned out that there is a ridge around the sink that required us to sand off the back of the handle bases to allow the to lay flat.  In the end the clearance sinks didn't save us any money and certainly not any time but they look beautiful and sometimes that is more important in the end.

Total final cost for this master bathroom: $1492.12, to the best of my knowledge (I do have most of the receipts for this room so this price is pretty close)
