Yesterday morning, Jeanine and I both received a text from our cleaning lady who reported that the faucet in our master bathroom would not shut off. Jeanine was the first to return at 6 pm and was quite proud of her resourcefulness in using a big crescent wrench to turn off the stubborn supply valve. I am not looking forward to our next water bill after a full day of watering the septic tank. Today, I set about to replace the faucet with a more modern looking one which also necessitated changing out the drain flange (because it was of a different finish). By the end of the day and after two trips to Lowe’s, I replaced the faucets and drains in two other locations. The effort left me with sore muscles everywhere from contorting my body into the various small workspaces I had to navigate.
