Oh I don't have photos of the soap making... and yes, used lye.

She's coming over today to cut her soap blocks up and take them home with her. I still have a mess in the kitchen from it with my name on it. BF got up early and went hunting, so I also lost the marital game of chicken.

From the Central Maine Guincident Command Centre:

The plumber SHOWED UP. Due at 0800, showed at 0755.

I'm in love.

The guineas are not.

I thought a fox was outside and ran out with the gun.

Maybe the plumber will fix it right.

I can see it now. He pulls up, hears a shrieking commotion, sees you run out with a gun, wonders what he's gotten himself into, thinks, I'd better get this fixed quick and right and get outta here!
Then the BF comes home in the hunting gear with a carcass and he knows he's in double trouble if he screws it up!

Nah 20 minutes later the part is replaced, works, and he's out of here.

Now I supplied the part... guess how much I was charged?

$100.00?

Today, I am taking it easy. My cousin, and I went Black Friday shopping yesterday. We went from 11:30 am, and I got home at 9:30 pm. I got some really super good deals, and have to admit it was well worth it, but it wore me out. Especially since I worked my tail feathers off fixing Thanksgiving for everyone. By the time I got it all unloaded from the truck (Dh was at work), I was one pooped mama.

Close, Getaclue. Very close.

Convince your grandchildren to be plumbers, folks. Or electricians.

 

[getaclue]

Plumbers, Electricians, or Air Conditioner repair persons. Yup.

You were probably charged for a full hour of labor, so $90?

I installed a sink in my pottery studio in Florida. That copper tubing can be a pain. The welding is the hard part because if there is a tiny spot without it leaks.
Cutting the countertop for the sink was kind of fun.
