It is Always Something

Friday dawned early, very early.  Thursday evening, Jim had decided that he should re-caulk the toilet while the shower enclosure was not there.  The contractors were coming Friday afternoon.  So, we got up at the crack of dawn; he went to the Ace hardware down the street for caulk, and I vacuumed the bathroom floor to remove any remaining pieces of crud from demolition.  That level of preparedness probably jinxed the entire thing.

However, let us first admire the early morning sky.  Is it not lovely?

I do like the sun hitting the yellow leaves.

Here is Jim caulking.  Note the position of his back half.  Doing that toilet with the glass there would have been very difficult.  It's not clear to me why they couldn't have moved it over five or six inches, but they didn't.  That's a head lamp strap around his head, in case you're wondering.

Anyway, the job was not completed.  The fixed side of the enclosure is in.  The door did not fit.  The walls are not completely vertical, there is a difference of 1/16 of an inch, and thus the door could not close.  A new one will have to be fabricated.  It will be at least two weeks.  So, we will continue to shower downstairs in the tub that makes me think I'm going to fall because it is so narrow.

Other than raking leaves and riding the new spin bike (which is exhausting) there is zippity doo dah all to report.
