Halfalive in the halfahouse

So, I've gotten ill again. Third time this year. A cold this time, mostly in the chest. But it's beating me down.

Tomorrow the plumber comes back to install the tub with me and do some work on the sink stubs. Just to make sure everything will be smooth sailing tomorrow, we pulled the tub out of its box and went to put it in place on a test run.

Yeah. It didn't fit. By about a quarter of an inch, which is unfixable with the walls where they are.



So the left-hand wall (which has the plumbing in it) had to go. Feeling as awful as I do tonight, that wasn't fun. Oh well. It's done now. Now I just have to build it back while Doug's here tomorrow, so that he'll have something to attach the showerhead and valve onto. I can probably work on that while he's doing the sinks.

Also tonight, we got our statement from Lowe's. Seems they're offering 20% off all special-order flooring. Starting next week.

We ordered all our flooring Sunday night.

Called the store. We will have to give up the 12-months financing to get the discount, but they'll work something out for us, I think.

Good night, I'm ready for something to start moving smoothly.
