Recently, I told someone that I liked watching home renovation shows because they always have a happy ending. The homeowners, after a little drama about their foundation or electrical, get their awesome kitchen island, luxury vinyl floors and double vanity. All’s well that ends well.
About a month ago on a Saturday, my old shower doors collapsed. Since I had to remove them anyway, I decided it would be a good time to refinish the shower. I even had a can of special spray paint for the shower in the utility closet.
