Today the sink/vanity went into the house along with the toilet. It was an interesting task because none of the parts seamed to be where they needed to be at the times I needed them. Wow that was a little complicated. So the sink went in without a problem as did the toilet. Right now the sink isn't completely bolted down due to the lack of finishing work on the drywall. Once I get them finished I will be able to bolt it down and it will be perfect but due to the fact that I need to be in the house I have to get things liveable asap. The tube guy should be coming tomorrow to fix the fact that I take pride in crashing random 2X4's into my brand new tube. WEEE HEEE. It really wasn't on purpose (a not for those who don't know me if you ever have a doubt whether I am serious or not, please assume that I am not). Other than lack of drywall in the total house picture the other main thing that I am missing is the wiring / electrical. The electrician is supposed to be in this week but it isn't looking really good. Oh well hopefully God will insure that everything works out because I need the electricity fixed so that I don't have to worry about burning the house down. Well enough for now I will catch up more later.

Today we tested the water line along with the newly plumbed sink and toilet. The first test run indicated a faulty plumb of one of the sink lines (hot). When plumbing this line, as I tightened the spicket on and cracked to seal on a pipe allowing it to leak. I replumbed it, let it dry and then tried it out again. This time it worked and allowed me to also test the toilet as well. The toilet was very tricky to fix but perserverence and process of elimination provided the solution. Now all that is left is the electricity and the house will be liveable (of a sort). Oh, there are new images active as of today. Check out the new windows, front door and some of the plumbing, etc. Until next time.
