Good Morning

I got up early this morning because it’s an in the office morning (hopefully not a full day, that would be tomorrow) and I needed to get all of my morning routine stuff done extra early.

When I got out of bed I saw this scene. This pic was taken with the iPhone’s low light mode, which is why it looks a little funky colored. The only light in the room was far away and purple.

I got a second shot a few minutes later when Jen got up and turned on the bathroom light.

If that doesn’t make your heart feel all warm and fuzzy early on a Tuesday morning then nothing will. I’m 80-something miles away from home now. Hopefully I’ll get to go home at lunch time and finish the work day there. Tomorrow is the official work-in-the-office day, so I’ll be there for the full day. Let’s see how it goes.

Shoelace Time

Jen broke out the shoelace and the cats went crazy.

I cropped the hell out of these, but you don’t mind, do you?

I have a feeling that today might be one of those days where I flirt with a new record for most blog posts in one 24 hour period. I don’t know what the record for me is. It’s over 10, I know that. I just have a feeling that today might be one of those days, you know? Forgive me, please?

Fun with Plumbing

Years ago we had a problem with water leaking next to the tub. It ran through the floor and ate a big hole in the sub floor before pooling up in the cellar. That lead to us having the whole bathroom remodeled.

It kinda didn’t fix the problem. I’ve seen water coming into the cellar a couple of times. There’s some damaged wall board next to the tub. I don’t think it’s a leak, I think it’s just a shower curtain issue. If we are super careful and close it tightly and make sure nothing gets out then there’s no water in the cellar. If we’re lax in our shower curtain workflow then we get some water. Not much, but enough.

We had a plumber in this morning to take a look. He suggested having a contractor come in and try to tighten things up so no water drips out. He added a little calk along the edge of the tub but that will more likely just move any water away from the wall board a little. I think we just need to be extra careful with the shower curtain. We’ll keep an eye on things.

In the meantime, here is a picture of Robin the kitty looking all introspective. She’s pondering the meaning of life here, clearly.
