Good morning Rounders! Well, our hot water heater went out yesterday afternoon. We knew it was living on borrowed time, but it's dead so we both had cold showers last evening. Brrrh! Actually it wasn't that bad because it was 81* and after cooking dinner I was burning up.
They got the backer board up and things are starting to take shape. He made us a really good offer to tile the floor in there and we agreed, but we need a little break cuz this is tough on both of us. They keep the front door open all day going in and out, plus the noise and distraction. It's killing me and I'm so worn out by the end of the day. Golly gee, I just need a break. I'll find out today how much longer the floor tile will take. Oh, dh is going to ask him if he will pick up a new hot water tank and install it. I bet he will.
Here is what happened yesterday: One of our neighbors pulled into our yard on his golf cart and started asking the contractor if he could cut some tile for him. He gave him an answer, but the know it all neighbor started arguing with him so the contractor came back inside. Then I realized who the neighbor was immediately and went outside and asked him to get his golf cart out of my yard. I told him I bet he wouldn't appreciate it if I brought a golf cart onto his purty green lawn. Not long after we bought this house he rode that cart into my yard and I wanted to say something to him that day, but I didn't. I had told dh that if he ever did it again I was going to say something. He made me upset then, and again yesterday. He is the neighborhood Know It All and I can't stand him. He, his wife, and the witch across the street are buddy-buddy. I'm sure the tongues were wagging yesterday after I ran him off. Oh, I can't stand him. Okay, I feel better. I apologized to my contractor if I caused him to lose a job and he said that he did not want to work for him. He understood immediately what the guy was like. I have found out from some of the other neighbors that he has keys to their property if something happens while they are away. Well, that is all well and good, but I don't need him around our property and I don't want his nosey self in my business. Okay, now I really feel better! See, I can let off steam same as anyone on this forum. Whew, I feel much better.
Doc appt today for me, then pick up Rx for dh, then to Lowe's to buy a extended shower spray head for the new shower cuz if dh has to have the surgery he will need it, plus we are both old so we need it anyway. After all those errands I will go to Aldi's to get some food. I'll be exhausted when I get home and I just hope my sciatic nerve holds up for the driving and walking on the concrete.
I've written a book. Hey, peace & plenty. I got 5 hrs of sleep. I cannot sleep good with all this stuff going on. I'll be glad when it's done.
