10-01-21 Lift off!
Gosh, the world is good when a friend shows up on time, coffee in hand for both of you and the back of his truck full of tools. I made a plan with Scott to pay him to work on my bathroom renovation and he stayed committed to it. He was great, worked hard and was a great problem solver when it came to the crazy we found under my shower once it was ripped out. I was so confident in him that I left to go to work for a few hours to run payrolls etc. I returned to so much done, I was doing a happy dance. I was the runner for parts and as always, it takes at least three trips to the Hardware store when one is doing plumbing. There were 4 layers of flooring! The shower had been installed over a big hole that went out to the crawl space without even vapour barrier, never mind insulation. By 5 it was time to call it a day. Unfortunately one leak hadn’t been solved so tomorrow that will be the first line of attack and for now, no water. I ordered a gorgeous wallpaper from Wayfair again. It won’t be here for a few weeks but it will match everything so well. On one of my runs to Home Depot I found my perfect vanity that is narrower than the current one and will allow more room for the toilet in its new position. It was about 300 more than I intended to spend but I think it is gorgeous. When I got out to the parking lot I couldn’t help but take a picture of the truck a couple spaces over. It was so Cranbrook.
I had every intention to stay at Raes tonight after the Bucks game but I felt too bad about Missy who had been outside all day and was sure to be hungry. Golly, it was such a good game. The stick handling was reminiscent of the Ducks in the early 2000s, they took a lot of hits but didn’t retaliate in a negative way. The Wenatchee Wild got a few major penalties for head shots!! It was so strange that there was an American team playing here. Not used to that. It was a big upgrade that this year that we have a screen with a telecast and replays. The commercials I could do without though but I am glad they are finding a revenue stream. The loudness of the horrible music I could definitely give a thumbs down to. I hope that gets leveled out. Hey we won!!!
I love that October is Machu Picchu! Also love that my sunflower keeps trying.
