Feeling Happy
Plumbing and stuff!
Okay if you know anything about building, I got the plumbing about 90% ‘roughed in’. Shirl & Sherry dropped by the job site. Don & Evelyn stopped by to laugh when I made a mistake or two, they especially laughed when the commode plumbing fell into the basement. Thank goodness they were not there when I forgot the Bath tub trap. Sonny came over and gave me a hand, he was not like the rest, he did not laugh at me. He has made too many mistakes I know to remind him of. HA! Sonny and I have worked on a lot of houses together. He is a Licensed Electrician. He just shakes his head when I bend a few codes and rules. I tell him it is my house and none of the government business. Never would I endanger my family by doing something that would be dangerous to them. I stay safe.
Of course that was yesterday and I was plumbing. We all know all you need to know about plumbing is that cold is on the right and s--- flows down hill. I think I got it that way.
Today was also plumbing the hot water heater and connecting a 70 foot sewer line. While I was doing that Sherry and Shirl were working a miracle of moving “Stuff stored” in the Building to the cellar. I completed the plumbing with one small leak, which I shall fix tomorrow.
Sherry & I went to Matt’s HS base ballgame. Of course our Grand son was the hero.
Betcha Shirl and Sherry are sore tomorrow, they worked their buns off.
Well I have some home work, gotta readd how to install this new design Delta Faucet in the bath tub. So it’s….

When Gary is getting ready to do plumbing he gives me advance warning to go and visit my family for awhile. Shirl's comment is priceless..HAHAHA! I tried to leave a comment several hours ago and finally gave up.

Note to Shirl: I was so surprised when you found my little secret. I hadn't told anyone about it yet. Thanks for leaving the first comment. I would have emailed you but didn't know your addy. Now it's your turn to take the plunge and start a journal. I know I would enjoy reading it. -
Even I know hot is on the left and cold on the right but the builders of my house didn't know that. When there was a man doing some work I ask him about changing the bathtub faucets and he said oh I would have to take that whole living room wall out. I didn't think that sounded right. lol but didn't know enough to argue with him. When my s-i-l came down he said give me a wrench and a screwdriver and he had both bath tubs changed in about five minutes free. Paula
