First up: our master bathroom. Here's what we are going to do:
- New travertine tiles in the shower with built-in shampoo nook with new shower head and valves and frameless shower door
- New travertine tiles on the floor with 4 inch tile base boards
- New granite counter top
- New lighting sconces
- New medicine cabinet
- We are keeping the existing sinks, toilet and cabinets
- 12/7 Demo shower
- 12/8 Plumber (I'm surprised and happy they are coming on a Saturday!)
- 12/10 Hot mop (important step in the shower installation process)
- Week of 12/10 tile goes into the shower, counter top install and floor
- Week of 12/17 shower door installed (this is the slow piece in the project because it has to be special ordered) and done!
After we swallow this one, we'll proceed to the next. Which will most likely be the kitchen counter tops. The implicit thing in all of this is that we are going to be here for a while. Probably a couple more years, so we might as well make it nice and enjoy it!

Sounds like a big project, I feel kind of stupid, but what are tubbers?
I'm in tune with your thinking. Kitchen/bathroom best returns on your investment. I like saving old if it still works, because new in old in a few weeks. Also, Grandpa B says if you are standing still you're moving backwards...or something like that. Stages are good; I can only take so much at one time. If and when it is time to sell it's just too much to do upgrade at the same time. Hang in there. Love, Ma
