What a Way To Spend a Tuesday!

Guess what I'm doing on this beautiful Tuesday afternoon??? Spending it with Mr. Plumber who is in my laundry room right now trying to fix the pipe that burst on Saturday while I was at the grocery store. He's been here almost two hours so far. I'm starting to worry about what this is going to cost me. Yikes! Old houses are a pain in the you-know-what. That's why I like our cottage home because it's new and less likely to have things go wrong. Until it becomes old too eventually. My DH used to be able to fix these kinds of things, but alas, I now must call on the professionals since he isn't here to do it anymore. I must admit, I kind of took for granted all the things DH could do. He was quite a handy hubby. And don't you just know now that he's not here anymore EVERYTHING is probably going to break! I sure hope not. The good news is, my laundry room got a thorough cleaning after I found the shut-off valve and stopped the water.
I sure hope you are having a more delightful day than I am.

Sorry, Jeanne, that you are having a bad day. Jud is not so handy but he knows who to call. I am trying to learn so many things in this short time...the biggest being finances!
I just saw that you are going to be in Gallery!! Horray for you. That is one of my favorites! think you better make something while you are waiting!!!
Big hugs,
Suz
