For those who might be interested:

We had to rebuild the master bath from the subflooring up -- new subfloor, new substrate, new shower (!), new toilet, new tile, new vinyl floor covering.

BUT IT'S DONE!! Tomorrow, approximately two months after closing, the house will be thoroughly cleaned and Saturday, January 10, we start moving boxes and stuff.

Huzzah! Hurrah! Caloo! Calay!

Now, if anyone wants to pop over and help...preferably someone with a good pickup truck or such....
