Adventures in Plumbing

I found the car key. It had fallen into a container of magazines in the bathroom. So yay. I got the bathrooms ready for the plumbers and got some cobwebs cleared out in the basement.

The first guy came and went way above and beyond the call of duty moving Mom's stuff in the basement and vacuuming out more cobwebs. I told him that I'd give them a great review for going above and beyond. Nice guys. Urgh. The plumber said that the hot water heater needs to be replaced and some of the gas lines aren't up to code. I trust these guys and the house is old. He's going to give me a new estimate. They've got the hot water heater in and ran a line upstairs. They also installed the new toilet. It's a fancy one in which you can choose the amount of water in the flush. I tried the new toilet out. It's awesome. And now we have hot water in the kitchen sink.

They fixed the pipe in the downstairs bathroom sink, only to find that the sink itself is leaking. They're coming back on Tuesday to replace the sink and change the cartridges in the bathtub faucet.

Whew.

The guys did not take the old hot water heater and toilet, so I'll have to ask the junk guys to take them, plus the boxes that they came in and some ceiling tiles.

I had planned to go get Zara's meds tonight, but I have a headache and am tired. I'm going to lie down for a little while after work, and then gather clothes together to donate tomorrow. Oh, and move the stuff that the guys shoved in the center of the breezeway. I couldn't sleep.

I'm winding down now, so I'm going to go to bed early. I'll deal with the stuff when I get up.

Oh, I forgot to mention that the YMCA called me and told me that I could go month-to-month with them. Awesome. I'm mainly interested in their yoga classes, but I might use their pool. Oh crud, the yoga class is on Wednesday, when I have meditation class. But they have a reciprocity agreement with other Michigan Ys, so I could go to another Y and take yoga on Monday. I thought that I had seen tai chi too, but I don't see it now.

zara, mom, house, headache
