bathroom / living room add-on header support

When they (whomever they are) put the add-on to increase the bathroom and living room sizes, they not only didn’t level the house first but they also didn’t put in the right size of support holding up the double 2×10 headers supporting the rest of the house above.  It was 1.5 inches too short, making it extremely obvious above in the 2nd floor suite. 

So most of today was dedicated to engineering a new support system and taking out the old.
