Water always wins

June 9, 2009 by Lauren 8 Comments

Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!
Stupid faucet.
Leaking water
Under sink.
Getting hotter.
Nut won’t turn.
Getting madder.
Knuckles hurt.
Getting sadder.
Leave ’til later.
Getting tired.
Stupid post.
Uninspired.

This is right before we gave up.

      It’s the second in our ‘photos through holes in the house’ series. 🙂 Someday we’ll be famous!

    I think you should just run a garden hose through the kitchen window. I think it would look very “eco-friendly”. In fact, if you could somehow get the water in your rain barrel to run into your sink that actually would be eco-friendly.

      It was pretty late at night, and we like to save “There’s a plumber next door” for things like sewer pipes backing up and such.

    I must have missed a post.
    Is Lloyd sportin a spiffy new & trim “do”? I don’t think his hair would have fit under the sink a few weeks ago.

      Yeah, you would have thought that would have warranted a post. It happened the first morning my brothers were in town. We stayed up to about 2:00am, and the next morning they didn’t look to be getting up any time soon, so I shaved off a lot of beard and headed to Bob’s.

      I think Bob did a fine job, but Lauren is none too happy about the fu manchu (It’s not a real one, more like a biker mustache).
