The realtor we talked to said that having a shower instead of a bath is a wash (see what I did there?) in terms of resale value. But even if it decreased the value, and even if it wasn't an accessibility issue for Miriam (which it is), it would be *so* worth it. Even before I installed the shower wand today it was wonderful having the space and the flatter floor. Adding in the wand and the shower stool to sit on while I wash my hair and such makes it even better. It's *so* much nicer than standing in a tub. 100% the right choice. And for fans of ST:TNG, I can confirm, after my first use with the full set of accessories today, that the shower is, in fact, fully functional. And fits two people very nicely in ways that a bathtub never could, as Miriam and I determined a couple days ago!
Anyway...
That shower wand had been in the old old old place; the first apartment we lived in in Regina. When we moved to the condo the first time, it was one of the last things I took on my final sweep of the place. I'd almost missed it! I took it with, but we were in there such a short time that I hadn't installed it before the fire, so it was still in the car and survived. One of the few weird little things that didn't get destroyed.

I dropped our car off for service before out trip back to Wisconsin next week. Here's my trip:

I don't like the portion of this route on Ross Avenue that Google had me use. I'm not comfortable biking on roads with that kind of traffic in a city I don't know well, and I feel like drivers here are probably less bike-aware than in Chicago. I rode harder than usual there and I'm still catching my breath a bit, but it's good to push limits sometimes too. I think I found a better option for that portion of my return trip tomorrow.

When you have hair my length a decent shower really is a thing!
I seriously don't think people these days are bothered as long as they can get clean!
