Smashed a window at my house. May have jeopardized everything but idc. Every window in the house was replaced with decent quality hurricane windows, Except ONE. The window in the shower stall in the master bath because at the time of placing the bulk window order, there was no shower stall and we didn’t know what size would be appropriate. But for about a month now I thought we were all on the same page settled on an 18 inch wide window, even had the windowsill dimensions sent to the stone slab cutter for everything to be seamless and match. I’d talked about this window ad nauseam, constantly re-iterating how important this bathroom was to me. Saying that literally all I care about in this reno is to do the master bath nicely. A few days ago my dad pulls up with this ghetto window with textured “privacy” glass not in the right size. The kind of window you’d see in a basement or in a nyc apartment bathroom that faces a brick wall. asked if he had the receipt and said that I don’t want it going in. Just to spite me he has the worker install the window that same day. So i’ve been steeping in that for a few days. Telling my mom there’s no way i’m letting this go, she said just live with it for a year. For what reason I would have to live with it for a year idk, considering the bathroom is still nearly gutted. There’s not functional plumbing, no toilet no sink. It’s bare bones and in the state to do renovations NOW. I just can’t get in the mindspace, the vanity we custom ordered cost nearly 5k so why would we immediately downgrade the effort of the reno by putting in this 100 dollar basement ass window IN THE SHOWER. Today my mom said that if I impede the process of them tiling the shower aka doing the waterproofing and tiling the window in permanently that she’d sell the house. I tried to explain to her that this will cost maybe ten times the amount to put in the right window later. Because shower waterproofing is very fickle, to untile and rewaterproof to set in a new window later is such a disaster. So i’ll just be staring at that ghetto window for who knows how long just knowing it’s going to be a disaster to rip out later? LIKE WHY ARE WE LITERALLY CREATING A NEW RENO PROJECT FOR LATER WHEN WE ARE CURRENTLY MID FUCKING RENO. USE YOUR FUCKING BRAIN. So a few hours ago I went over to the house and punched the window in. Funny enough in the moment I’d tempered my strength to not break it just hit it for dramatics, but it totally fucking shattered 😂 Impact glass my ass bitch. Crazy too, my horoscope for the day
