found a leak under the sink on Thursday, sigh…

we emptied the space out and my housemate discovered that the hose on the tap was leaking… that one had been installed in 2014…

we contacted our plumbing people and headed out to purchase a new tap… we took the $10 Canadian Tire money that has been in the drawer for years…

it was fun to watch various staff members try to figure out how to deal with the paper, lol… eventually they discovered the longest serving teller who was able to assist our cashier and away we went…

as we got home we heard that the plumber was on his way…

in just under an hour, the tap was changed, and they were on their way…

this tap has the handle on the right side, so I am getting adjusted to that, lol…

we had a fan on, drying out the inside of the cabinet before the “stuff” which was filling up a number of counters, went back in…

this morning, now that the space is dry, all of the items from the cabinet when back in… and possibly in a slightly more organized way;-)…

1000 days…

1000 days, beloved, big girl pants, Dreamdays, faucet, George

I have this app called Dreamdays on my phone… it counts up to and down from important dates…

today marks 1000 days since my beloved left this world… in four days it would have been his 66th birthday…

we went to Rona today to pick up a tile and a new faucet for the kitchen as the old one has been dripping for a few weeks…

thankfully Jeff was able to replace it for me… don’t even think there was any cursing, lol…

when my chariot arrived, it even included a snow shoveler…

for most of our years together George did all the shovelling, other than the few years his heart wouldn’t let him…

a thousand days seem like forever and a blink of an eye all at the same time… I’ve missed him every single one of those days…
