Holy Guts, Batman!

So... renovating newsflash... the most important thing to spend money on in your house is the stuff that nobody sees. Furnaces aren't sexy. Tankless water heaters aren't sexy. (Though once Nick saw the computer in ours, he may disagree...) Ductless heater/AC units aren't sexy. But they're necessary. And smart buys. And more important than (le sigh) marble floors or fancy light fixtures. A tough lesson learned... but that is where we are at this week as our furnace, plumbing, and utility work is being finished up...

Ok, sexy it is not, but I'd be lying if I said having water upstairs didn't make me a little giddy...

Holy crap is that drywall?? And...

 Laundry hookups!?? BE STILL MY HEART!

 The aforementioned tankless water heater... see that little silver foily thing inside... near the bottom...

 This... this little smaller-than-a-loaf-of-bread "tank" is all the water this sucka holds... as it flash heats it... Goodbye waiting 5 minutes for the shower to heat up... ahhhhhhhhh....

But... I assure you my lovelies, this week has not gone by without it's "sexy" purchases...

Oh, hello gorgeous...
