Bathroom Remodel - Day 4

The plumbing has been installed and the tub is in place... it's starting to look like a bathroom again!

The electrician showed up bright and early the next morning. He installed the wiring for our new outlets with an actual GFI switch. Oooo, we'll be living the high life now!

We've been told that, while our circuit breaker panel had extra circuits available, we might want to replace it anyway because it's an older model, which is apparently notorious for not tripping the breakers properly. We wouldn't know about that, because we always have to go reset it every time we try to use the toaster and the microwave at the same time....

By the way, the big white box next to the electrical panel is the scarily high-tech signal box they installed as part of our FiOS service. It has an actual lantern battery inside it, to serve as the backup power for the phones if the power goes out.
The plastic on the floor makes an interesting bubble-wrap kind of sound when we walk on it, but Cody doesn't seem to mind.
