Well, I got that painting done on Sunday and did some more work around the house. Then Sunday evening, I hear wifey cursing. There is a leak under the sink. Monday morning I ended up replacing most of the drain stuff and all is well for around $10 worth of parts.



Then yesterday afternoon while we were rrelaxing and and wifey was doing laundry, guess what? The freaking washer decides it is time to give up and call it quits. Luckily, after looking at it this morning, it is just the lid switch which I was able to actually access without dismantling. It cracked. I just super glued it and it seems to be working good so far. If that fails me then I will just cut the wires and twist them together. Or install a toggle switch so it can be shut off midcycle if need be. I think the super glue is going to hold it together though.

I don't think I have had so much stuff break in such a short period of time. And on a holiday weekend to boot.

I also managed to install a 3rd ceiling fan out back by the pool that I have been wanting to do for a long time. We bought the fan at an auction for $5 and it works great! I just had to get a 1 foot rod to hang it because of the slope of the over hang.
