So I have been tiling the half bath floor today, and naturally I've had TV on in the other room so I could listen to the preseason games in the background.
So I hear them say that Palmer threw a pick, and had to stop spreading mortar and go take a look...
When I came back I laid down the next tile and went back about my business, but something just didn't feel right in the back of my mind.
About 10 minutes later it dawned on me...I never finished dragging the trowel notches through the mortar before I stopped to watch that replay, and I just laid the down the next tile when I got back. It's not back-buttered, as I only do that around the perimeter (and I only do it there so that I don't get mortar on the walls or trim).
So my question to any tile specialists out there, should I be concerned about this missed step on a single tile? (For the record, I'm almost positive the new vanity will sit on top of it)
