Well, the thing is in my house. And I did go back to the hardware store where the very helpful clerk got me set up with lots of plastic pipe.
But I have not started.
You know what I did today? I had a really great day - no regrets.
I went to the gym and worked out, which is unheard of for me - I hope it's the start of a trend. How have I gone so long in my adult life without realizing the mental/emotional benefits of moderately strenuous exercise a few times a week? It's like no one told me, although really it's that I wasn't listening. I've been taking Spin classes twice a week, and the goal is to do a third day of working out on the elliptical rider.
I attended a clinic on beginning snowshoeing at our local REI. Who knew there was enough to talk about to fill an hour and a half? Very interesting, and they rent shoes and poles, so that is definitely on my list to try this winter.
And I had lunch with dear friend D, and we did a little shopping and had coffee, too. I got home, took the dog to the dog park, went to the library, and THEN went to the hardware store. I sort of felt bad that I didn't get to it today, but who cares? There's no one lined up to use the sink, so I'll give it a go tomorrow.
Sounds like you had a day that was really good for you in more ways than one! Let's see . . . the day you had or a day working on plumbing. Which would I chose? Hmmmm . . . :o)
ReplyDeleteI know! But there always seem to be better options than home repair project - that's my problem.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you had such a great day. The best plumbing advice I can give you is make sure there is a shutoff BEFORE you start, and only do this at the beginning of the day, when you can get to a hardware that is open when you are almost done and just need one or two more things to finish. Happy grinding!!
