Behind Closed Doors

When you visit our home, you will now be able to exercise you regular bathroom rituals behind closed doors. Yes, that's right. We have a bathroom door. I am not sure I really need to same too much more. I could, of course, express to you what it's like to live in a house for 1.5 months without a bathroom door, but I am hoping your imagination will suffice.
As always, I will leave you with pictures to explain the stages of putting in 3 interior doors.
 Note: novice workers at work.


1. Inspecting the door. One may employ his/her father(-in-law) to inspect the door to approve it's structure.


2. Prep for the door. Cut out little blocks to secure door. This is especially important in the event that your opening is larger than the door casing.


3. Place the door. Ensure that it is level and above all else, make sure you can close and open the door before nailing it in. In the event that your wall was built out of level, this could prove to be tricky.


4. Admire. Stand back and admire your handy work. Put aside the rising feeling of disappointment when you realize you still have to paint it before you can add door knobs. That will come soon. For now, enjoy that fact that you can sleep, change and crap in private.
