A Wee Bit O" Plumbing

We are down to a wee bit of plumbing in The Little Brick House Cafe`. Isn't that a relief? Yes it is. Well, I went in this morning determined that I was going to get the majority of that plumbing done. I am, after all, experienced in the field. Yes the summer was long and hot in Las Vegas back in 97. I labored hard in the hot sun running drain lines and gas pipe for an apartment complex. The few months that I worked for Krahenbuhl Plumbing actually taught me a lot. I think the first lesson any aspiring plumber learns is that crap flows down hill. Most plumbers wouldn't use the word crap there and I was certainly schooled on the subject by a teacher that used slightly different language, very colorful. Anyhow, this is a family show so we try our best to keep it clean.

Anyway, I was determined to get it done and did so. I was actually running water lines which I didn't do any of back in 97 though it isn't much different then running sprinkler pipe. Actually used a product called SharkBite and it was really easy to use and fun to work with. There was the occasional challenge but in the end the goal I set for the day was accomplished. Now the only plumbing remaining is the faucet we are waiting for that gets installed on the triple sink. The hookups were run today and tying everything in should be quite simple. We are hoping the faucet arrives tomorrow.

Funny, there was a quick little lesson here. In life we are going to encounter challenges along the way. It happens to everyone and we simply need to press forward and work through them. If we remember that the challenges are part of life and that crap runs downhill - meaning the challenges will pass - we will make it through and be just fine. Funny enough we will find that we have learned a few things a long the way.

Grateful for the day and looking forward to another productive one tomorrow. Sure do miss my kiddo's and was thinking about the fact that 3 weeks has passed pretty quick. I don't mind the time going quickly. Soon enough it will be the 2nd of August and they will be home. There is much to do before then and that is good.
