The Old Folks Home

We have to replace the sub-floor from the leak damage. So we will have to cut a 8x8 beam and the 2x4 studs that are rotten. And replace the plumbing under the floor before we can put the sink together. It would be hard to cut all the lumber in the rain.
So there is a lot more going into this than just the sink.

My Parents house had problems like that. We had to replace beams under a tub and bathroom. I learned that house jacks were actually meant to lift house beams! We used them to lift cars but that is not what they are really for

I believe that is the original reason straight jackets were invented.


Um, cabinets to be delivered INTO the house tomorrow (Wed) right? Sink will be in the house right? And plumbers can work in the house right? So what's a little rain OUTSIDE?

Tomorrow I get my teeth cleaned. Thursday I get up early and blow the expected 5" of snow so DW and DD2 can go to their respective work locations. DD will be leaving by 6 AM (and hopefully staying on the road this time!). Then I can blow again later in the day. If I'm lucky I won't have to get up early on Friday as well but at this point I'm not holding my breath.

Yeah, holding your breath until Friday is bad for your health!

snowed here... not too much... I think I can pretend it didn't happen and not plow

I can hardly wait. But the stress is causing me to have very bad anxiety.
Knowing what all has to come out before the new can go in.

Chill pill indicated!

As for straight jackets, I thought that was why duck tape was invented.

I went and had a bone density test today. I stopped at the local hardware store to get nails. When i went back out to get in the car, the handle of the door started pulling out of the hole it fits in! So i shut it and went around to climb in the passenger side. On the way over the console i sat on my open water bottle and my butt got soaking wet! Looked like i peed myself!
Then it was time to go get my bone density test!
