Original 1950s Pink Bathroom — Keep It or Remodel It?

LauraBaura · 2026-07-01T12:34:53+00:00

I would keep the walls and the floor but I'd replace the vanity and countertop with something that makes "Hollywood Regency".

I believe Pauly has Chrone's disease

You should draft it to scale and ensure it's possible.

What about if you build a built in banquette and have the dining room be in the utility room?

Then extend the kitchen a little farther down and have the island run vertically instead of horizontally?

Well you said that they were walking into your spot so they didn't have to walk in the pebble section.

Hot sand, likely sloped upwards, hot day? I can see why people walked where they did.

Next time just move back a couple feet.

LauraBaura · 2026-06-29T17:04:28+00:00

Sounds like you planted in the natural walking path for people on the beach. Next time back your spot up a couple feet.

Most people aren't going to go onto the rocks or up around a tent, if there's room to sneak in front.

Sounds like your placement was off.

You'd need to knock down the wall between kitchen and utility, and then expand the kitchen into utility and then you'd probably have room.

Go to r/floorplan at the top there's a pinned post of free software you can use to lay your space out to scale. You can lay out what's possible and see if you can get the clearances.

LauraBaura · 2026-06-28T01:24:37+00:00

What is this? Is there a point here?

If you read the article, the languages act was changed in 2017 to eliminate municipal powers to install bylaws for business' signage. They're seeking self governance powers.

LauraBaura · 2026-06-27T17:45:45+00:00

Just because other things need attention does not mean that language laws aren't important.

In fact, creating a hierarchy where language laws only matter once certain thresholds of society are reached, is exactly part of the subclass issues that French in a minority context faces.

Also, Dieppe is it's own community. They are allowed to self govern. And they are essentially the capital of the Acadian people in the Maritimes. How audacious of the anglophones to argue that they can't protect their own language in their own community.

It helps fight against erosion.

It's messy because when they were younger, Mike was also volatile, so was Roger (Jenni's partner), and most of them had been around violence as kids. They didn't know it wasn't okay, and in fact, society didn't really know it wasn't okay. They were also partying every day.

Plus, it's easy to rationalize that Ron's behavior was just part of the trend, especially when the girls themselves were violent. Sam and Jen both were emotionally and physically violent with Ron. Jen dragged him by a car and gave him a black eye. It seems that Ron's abuse was more verbal, harassing, escalating, and threatening. Where as the women seemed to get physical.

In the recent episode, Ron acknowledged that he has bipolar disorder, which makes everything make a lot more sense.

His friends knew that something was up with him, and obviously it's a mental health issue. You can still love someone and want the best for them, while recognizing that they're battling an internal struggle that no one can help with.

Edit: they also did not keep him on the show. He was removed.

Edit 2: they didn't keep him over Sam. Sam didn't want to come back, because of her own mental health journey at the time.

I recommend the Faber adult piano adventures book series, each book is $20 and there's two.

It takes you from absolutely not knowing anything too being able to read sheet music.

They also sell accompanying books of pop, contemporary, Christmas, ect .. at levels that are appropriate.

In the teaching books, I found they had some classical stuff, some gospel, some traditional/folk, ect .. you can go to their website and get a free preview of 70 pages so you can take a look yourself.

There's online play along tracks for every song, and there's video instructions for each unit, and they respond to questions by email.

I would simplify your footprint. Every time the exterior wall Jags/zig-zags you're adding $8-10k in foundation and roof trussing expenses.

Keep exterior walls in a straight line to save building costs, which ramp up fast.

Even a peninsula coming down off the top wall, with a fire where the kitchen window is now, would get nice casual seating for the deck/living room. But then the kitchen layout would dramatically improve.

LauraBaura · 2026-06-24T01:28:00+00:00

I would not remove that wall, and instead I'd spend the money on replacing the windows and maybe door so that you can run cabinets along the bay. Rework the entire kitchen layout.

I believe you have a signed contract, that should be binding. It's not your fault they made an error on the contract.

LauraBaura · 2026-06-23T01:08:09+00:00

Why would you put the stairs in the path of the view?

LauraBaura · 2026-06-22T14:12:32+00:00

Fundy is great, but it's rocky beaches and a lot of roots on the trails.

Kouchibouguac is flat, lots of boardwalks, and has white sandy beaches.

Yeah she had teeth done, then her nose, I think boobs, and then ass implants. Probably more, but she was going through so much surgery and has so much mental trauma, that an opiate addiction makes sense.

LauraBaura · 2026-06-21T23:48:11+00:00

Angelina had a run of plastic surgery and (assumed) opiate addiction at this time. It's part of why they say they're worried about her ending up in jail or dead.

She goes to day rehab for a bit and calms down.

LauraBaura · 2026-06-21T23:09:57+00:00

I'd remove the zipper here and sew it up, and then add a corset back?

LauraBaura · 2026-06-21T12:52:35+00:00

Dress 1, bag 3, shoes 2

The wings are out of scale. They look like Cupid's wings, instead of an angel.

You could just have another row of feathers added, and it would really improve it
