Tell Us About Your Day

I'll share some of my padding with you. Not sure if it makes me hardy, though, or just soft to squeeze. LOL

I baked muffins this morning and got out for a walk. We also took care of the vacuuming. Went out for lunch, and then flipped through neglected library books. (They were my picks; the kids zip through theirs!)

Another day of work for me but the weekend is almost here.

The plumber fitted us a new toilet, and also one for my step daughter.

I am now £930 poorer.

Wow!!!  Don't go to college, become a plumber to make a lot of money. 

Then not so bad then.

The plastic screw fixing of toilet seats are notorious for slipping and thats often what sends the seat sideways , sometimes a bit of ptfe tape helps to keep them tight.

The modern thing OH likes to point out and laugh at is the whirlpool baths and the hanging toilet with conceled cisterns...

Very often both DIY and professionals add a tiled bath siding or tiled back wall to the toilet and leave no access hatch.. This means if your pump on the whirlpool goes so does your tiling,, similarly if the ballcock or flush breaks on the conceled toilet cistern the whole back wall has to be ripped out. Cost of old fashioned ballcock is a few pounds plus fitting  v the cost of rebuilding your nice hanging toilet and possible flood damage = thousands.. Oh and most people dont have a stop valve in the bathroom so water has to be turned off for the whole house. 

In my house each system is isolated theres a main stop valve plus one just for the kitchen, bathroom ,wc etc so we can isolate each room.

Maybe a beach day today. Haven't been for awhile and the weather looks good.

I went to town my sister today. We tried on loads of different clothes. I ended up with a white autumn-style rollneck. I have a new blue dress, too. I also have a new ring and pair of earrings. We stopped off at a local pub for lunch: I had Mac & Cheese, while my sister had soup.

I also ate my dinner at my dad's house: my dad cooked steak and onions. I helped a bit. I later was driven home by my dad and here I am!

One of my favourites was a patient with scar tissue. I told her to use wheatgerm oil. 

"How did you get on?" Said I.

"Terrible. It gave me the runs."

She had been taking it orally. I specifically told her to rub it in. "It said two teaspoonfuls on the bottle!"

I've had my daily shower. I am now airing out my apartment and posting online. I am listening to the radio, too.

Well I was going to mow the lawn but with the wind and the rain clouds haning overhead I think that job is on hold.
Im doing a household finacial breakdown/check . I like to keep an eye on things to make sure we are not paying too much .
I review suppilers each year and where necessary I make changes.

When I worked at the market garden, as a kid, I was told off for opening the main tap all the way, as they were prone to jamming open.... 

Result!
