    And forgot what a crappy job that is. I:

    1. replaced broken handle and fixed very fast leak on her bathtub
    2. replaced faucet, p-trap, and supply lines on her bathroom sink
    3. repaired and unclogged garbage disposal
    4. repaired and unclogged dishwasher

    None of these were a big deal, but I just hate getting into rancid drains and water--the smell doesn't come off. Yuck. In the end though, I did close to $1,000 of work for her for $68 in parts. So I suppose it was worth it.

    John Doe, I take back everything I ever said about you. You are a good guy to do that for your sister. Let's have a beer sometime. You bring the beer, I'll bring the nuts.

    Cool, It's nice to have a man help around the house. Hubby has some repairs to do also. We had called the landlord but his repair guy is for the birds.

    All the more reason this makes you a wonderful person for helping out your sister.

    My daughter wrote me something a few years ago (she was about twenty at the time) for fathers day, that included a line that "she could always learn some new words when Dad was working on the plumbing."

    That was good of you to do that for your sister.

    That's illegal everywhere but in West Virginia, you know.

    Oh heck, I ain't that nice of a guy. It just never hurts to have some guilt bargaining power in the bank, if you know what I mean.

    Besides, I got to tinker with my power tool toys and hand tools.
