Craig has been keeping quite busy this holiday vacation testing the limits of his handyman skills. He has completed drywalling & painting 2 of the 3 inside garage walls (the 4th wall is the door for those of you keeping count). It is definitely brighter with the super white walls than before with exposed brown wood studs and black tar paper. In addition to the garage work, he repaired our sink.
The issue started with a simple dripping faucet and as usual in the Dauch household, blossomed into a full bloom 3 day faucet repair with multiple trips to the hardware store for mysterious, inadequately identified faucet "guts". No one tells you that you have to remove the lock ring and flip the stem of the ceramic disk to make the hot water handle open the valve in the opposite direction as the cold handle. Luckily we put both our college educated heads together and used our little monkey hands to put it together and take it apart like 5 times before we figured it out!
