...Rosie the Riveter, that is!
Today, in a frantic effort to get ready for company (six people who are arriving this weekend), I installed two of these:
and two of these:
Removed the old caulk and proceeded to recaulk one of these (no that's not mine in the photo):
BUT, by far the most exciting job completed today was to repair my upstairs bathtub which has not been working since last MAY. (Ahem.) To make a long story short, the tub would not drain because the little lever thingy was broken as well as the wire thingy that you can't see that controls the little lever thingy. Once I removed the little lever thingy, the wire thingy and its surrounding plate, I dug down the overflow with a wire hanger and pulled this thing out.
This thing apparently controls the tub's ability to drain.
Not any more! (insert evil, sinister laugh)
At least now we can use the tub, though for the time being I will have to purchase a temporary rubber stopper for bathtime. I didn't want our company to have to share one bathtub between the ten of us.
Do you know that I only spent $18 and now have two working toilets and two presentable bathtubs? I am pretty proud of myself.
Now I am going to prop up my feet and have a glass of wine. Then I am going to bed. :)
