Who Just Installed A New Sink?

That's right. Yours Truly. After starting at 11:30 am (for the second time. The first time was last week), I just finished installing a new bathroom sink and faucet. What it required:
  • Three trips to Home Depot
  • One trip to George Morlan Plumbing
  • Three pipe cuttings
  • One sink-basin uninstall
  • One brand new basin wrench
  • One brand new mini hacksaw
  • One hour of glue removal
  • A couple mild profanities
  • One long suffering wife
Phew. Don't talk to me for a few days. I am feeling ornery.

One down, two more to go. Shoot me now.

    Good on 'ya, son....it is a steep curve, but pretty soon, you have a garage full of tools (two of some because you can't remember if you have something on your 4th trip to Home Depot and the thought of avoiding a return trip for the 5th time is worth the price of the tool! Love you and really AM very i mpresseed!
