04/24/18 - On 4/20, I got up and started to do some packing since Robyn will be home late this afternoon. I needed to meet Aunt Ada at 11 15 am at the church since there was a Spring Women's luncheon. We had a nice lunch and the pastor's wife was the speaker. It was very good. I then returned to Robyn's house to finish packing and making sure Cookie was fed before I left for Aunt Ada's house for the rest of the afternoon. I went home at around 4 45 pm. I didn't do much unpacking but of course put away the refrigerator stuff. Later in the evening, I noticed I had some water sitting on the floor around the commode!! I wiped it up and sure enough, I have a leak. I turned the water off for the night.
4/21, I turned on the water long enough to fill some half gallon milk cartons and then turned it off. Did some cleaning and ran some errands.
4/22, Turned the water on again to refill cartons and now the leak is even bigger!! I was able to take off the clamp and re-clamp but that didn't help either.
4/23, Called the repair man and asked for a schedule ASAP since I was tired of living out of cartons and of course no shower for the past two days and the weather is warm and I am just unhappy!! He was very good and told me he could be over in about an hour and half. I was so glad. It took about 45 minutes but I was repaired. I then learned when he put the new seal in the commode on 4/9 that he cracked a fitting so I got repaired for nothing. Now, I am all back together. Left for Aunt Ada's around 1 15 pm since we are working on a puzzle. Albertsons had ice cream on sale and she wanted me to stop and get her one. We got quite a bit done on the puzzle but this one is all flowers with colors everywhere and the pieces are cut so different so has been a challenge. We had dinner together and then back home.
Today, will clean up the bathroom since I am repaired, run some errands, check with a couple of optical shops to see how long it takes to get a prescription filled so I can make some plans or summer travel.
