I have a date with a contractor. It'll be fixed. Shame about my pocketbook (that'll take longer to fix, but that too shall pass eventually).
Since I made this post, I discovered that my kitchen sink faucets needed re-sealing (they were seeping water as well). Rialian just spent all morning removing the old fixture which had corroded to the point where it was just about impossible to get off. We just got back from the Home depot armed with a new faucet fixture and some sink connectors and sealant.
Before returning home, we went to the bookstore and got a couple of books - namely, "Plumbing Step-by-Step", and "The Complete Guide to Bathrooms," "Wiring -- Complete Projects for the Home," I want to get to know my house. I've been living in it for 21 years. It and I may as well become friends...
After all that, I had to buy something just for fun... I got "The Hand-Sculpted House -- A Practical and Philosophical Guide to Building a Cob Cottage". I wonder if I could build a cob shed... If I did, it would outlast my house from what they say...
