Boys are gross. Boys' toilets are grosser.

The master bath of our home is limited to a shower stall, small round toilet, and a cantilevered sink.  I do not use the master bath, only my husband does.

Unfortunately, something started leaking years ago, and the sub-floor warped.

One day, hubby stepped into the shower, and stepped THROUGH the shower pan - the fiberglass cracked.  So he stopped using the shower, figuring we could replace the pan at some point.

Then the toilet started leaking, because the floor was uneven.  So he stopped using the toilet.  And we realized we'd need to fix more than the shower.

We've been saving our pennies (more on that another time) to be able to afford a new bathroom.

My sister and I started the process this weekend, ripping out the toilet, shower door, and medicine cabinet.  I would like to say for the record, that BOYS are gross.

Pretty sure we spent about an hour at getting the toilet out.  Also note, the bowl is cleaner than it has EVER been, because we cleaned it before we started.  SO GROSS.

My sister started taking out this soap dish.  And she almost took me out with ceramic shards.  We decided the safety glasses were a good idea.
