I'm guessing that this room, where my 'puter is, will be next... huh...

We have way too much junk still LOL.....so we'll host a garage sale this weekend... |^|....might throw some older tanks out for sale to....need to thin that collection also..

Lots on your plate, for sure.  You've taken the first step. Hope you're looking forward to the work ahead.
Always move forward. Never look back.

...well stripped down for a shower and looked down and saw a puddle on the floor by the pot.... huh....we'd had a slight drip but I'd tightened up the shutoff connection...now it was piss'n at me....wtf...?....ran down and shut the water off real quick...grabbed my mini pipe wrench and got down to check it out.....balls !...the connection piece had cracked....so I removed the valve and pulled on my pants and ran yo the hardware store..........got a new valve, taped the threads and put it all back together...........'poifect'...  w!w |^| w!w..... |^|....all's well.... |^|


.....always something, huh.....the valve was pretty beat up....must have been the original?.....I replaced the one downstairs after we'd moved in....silly me, should have changed 'em both....

And here I was thinking that I was the only one who had shit like that happen to!  It sucks, doesn't it?

Take another shower and get in bed and have a good sleep.  I will do the same.  Work for me tomorrow...I hope that a good sleep will help put my silly worries into perspective.
Always move forward. Never look back.
