Design Flaw

The bathroom is now even more mostly done than it was before...but not quite. I have installed a door on the bathroom which was long overdue. I used a door we had but it required turning the hinges around. I still have to drill a hole for the lock set to connect to.

I have installed our new Medicine Cabinet. It arrived while we were in Iowa. It looks great. It has allowed me to enjoy a little luxury I haven't had since we moved into this house. I am finally getting back into a morning routine where I have everything I need to make me pretty all in one place. It seemd like I had stuff spread throughout the house before.

I have discovered a design flaw in my bathroom plans. I have been aware of it for some time but have been reluctant to acknowledge it. The heater is in the wrong position. It is placed directly across from the shower. When you step out of the shower, the heater blows air on you. It's warm air, but it doesn't feel that way when you are dripping wet.

I am also not thrilled with the programmable thermostat I have installed. When it reaches the programmed temperature, it cycles off and on repeatedly. I can't imagine that is good for the heater or my electric bill...and it's damn annoying as well.
