Where do I put the bathroom thats getting an overhaul, paper or plastic or entertainment?

Long story buy funny. Been 3 weeks now. The counter is coming out "I think". In the upper left corner there was a stupid hot tub - duh. That thing got ripped out and the motor went to the pool. There was a shower to the right you cant see and now there is a closet. The shower was called the 9 shower where we could all fit in - NOT. I could not even get in there and turn without hitting my elbows and I am not that big of a person.

One thing lead to the other to the other to the other. The "men" had everything under controll untill I said " the drain is wrong, the directions said 12 inches" They said you measured from the corner not from side to side - duh I was wrong. I kept asking questions and a neighbor came over and said Women they nag, nibie, nibie, nibie.

My face got red (even though I was somewhat laughing) That night went to Home Depot and I looked at the shower agian and said to myself "something aint right". Got home and looked. I then said to my dear Jim " something is not right with that shower" oh no, no he said it going to be right".

I got out the tape measure again and went into detail. I came back out and said - "its not right your going to end up drilling the shower on the joint and its going to be screwed up, your going to have to drill on a seam and its not going to be right - I will show you". Well after telling the men for 3 days something was wrong, guess what? Sherrie was right.

They had to pull the wall out and redo the plumbing. WHAT??? I am woman, why didnt they listen to me in the 1st place that Something was wrong?

So now since it was supposed to be done this weekend its not going to happen as I am the Painter. Its going to take 2 days to paint it right. Here goes another weekend.
