Good morning friends! 
Yesterday we picked up some stuff and have a huge project slated for today - the bathroom! More specifically, the leaking, toe-jamming, mildewey, outdated, and gross shower doors and frame have to go. The frame is two inches high, and that two inches doesn’t seem like much unless your legs are bad and it’s hard to lift them to get in. I think we’ve talked about my difficulties getting into the tub before. Anyway, the shower doors are cheap, old-mobile-home plastic and I hate them. They don’t even come clean anymore. The one door is stationary and the way the essentials are arranged in the bathroom the only way to clean behind the toilet is to remove that door and get into the bathtub, then lean over and clean back there. I’ll still have to clean it the same way, but once we’re done I can push the shower curtain to the other side and I won’t have that door frame pushing into my anatomy while I do it, and I don’t have have Ken remove the doors for every cleaning. Without the doors, I will be better able to use a showering aid in the tub, too.
We bought a lovely new shower curtain, There must be 10 layers of old caulk that I have to remove - and 42 years worth of other people who couldn’t clean those doors any better than I can. Yuck!!!
. Any suggestions? I am worried about what the top of the tub is going to look like after the doors and frame come off. I need to get all that old soap scum, caulk, and mildew off without scratching up the surface of the tub, so I’m wayyy open to suggestions here.
