The bathroom sink is leaking.


OK I'll rebuild the faucet, I have a kit.
Now that I think of it, I've rebuilt it several times....I think I will
just get a whole new faucet.
You know what, I never did like that sink....I'm going to get a whole
new sink AND faucet.


As long as you are going to do that, maybe we should put in a cabinet
below the sink?



After going to Home Depot's website and taking measurements, I return to
the bathroom and look at our worn out 65 year old bathtub and say:
I think the bathtub has priority.


We both agree to having an expert replace it next year...

and I rebuild the faucet one more time.




After note:

I rebuilt the cold water tap, my wife told me it was the "hot" that was
leaking.


In my experience it's always the hot side...

A typical conversation, once you get started it doesn't end.

Come on; with all you have accomplished don't give up now! ;-)

Are you like me and only have one bath?




Yes usually the hot but this was the cold leaking


One bathroom in the house...it was built in 1898 and one bathroom was
enough although there is an odd, non-working toilet in the basement.
