Bathroom continues
After staring at the floor for 2 weeks, I started preparing it last week. I cut and fitted a plywood underlayment to the existing subfloor and then fitted a Hardibacker floor on top of that. The Hardibacker was laid down with thinset and then screwed down. 
I am laying down a leveling mortar this afternoon and then the plumber is coming is coming tomorrow to help me install the shower base [ tricky to put it mildly]
