And a trifecta

[pjthompson]

This morning, the pipes leading hot water to the kitchen went kaflooie. Lotsa money involved. It's an old house. Slowly but surely we're going to be forced to replace all the piping, but the timing always sucks. There is much chagrin in the land.

And Mercury didn't even go retrograde until yesterday. Damnable planet.

These are all small things, very small. No one is dead, we have a roof over our head, sufficient bread. This is the small stuff they tell you not to sweat.

It's hard not to sweat when you're cleaning up a mess and replacing pipe, though. Sorry. :/

[pjthompson]

Har! But, fortunately, the plumber will be doing the sweating. And the mucking about. :-) And the cashing of the check. :-(

Oh no! Was there much water damage? Just what you didn't need.

[pjthompson]

No, fortunately. The hot water just stopped coming out except in a trickle. The old iron pipes feeding the kitchen were just so rusted.
