Giddy-up partner. You're a maverick and don't know what the definition of normal is. That's a-okay because you're now part of a fascinating group of desperadoes. Wherever you ride, it's sure to be off the beaten path because it's way more fun to find the path least traveled.

Changing the world economy

We're off in a bit to return both the water softener and the tankless water heater to Home Depot. Nice.

Then we're going to buy a mini-fridge, sink and dishwasher for the new kitchenette area downstairs, all of which we'll probably either return or mis-install.

Maybe we'll start putting the cabinets together that we bought for the laundry room. Plenty of room on the now-wrecked dance floor to work.

Confidence level today: low.

I'm feeling much better, thank you!

This morning, we returned the tankless water heater and the water softener to Home Depot with no questions asked. Done. We still have the whole house water filter that will be installed with the new water heater, whenever we get it...which has to be soon. So it's not a 100% loss.

Then we went into shopping mode, trying to find just the right mini-fridge, dishwasher etc for the downstairs. That's also a challenge, but we did end up at Sears, where in a self-gratification purchase, we bought a new BBQ to replace the failing old one. We also ordered a low-end dishwasher there, too, which we'll pick up next week. We saw the sink we wanted at Home Depot, and have pretty much decided on a fridge, too.

So after a few more shopping spots for window shopping (Kirkland's, Pier 1), we ambled home. abqdan went right into his destructo-mode in the laundry room, and I started the process of assembling the new BBQ. And here's the final product! AND it works!




Apparently all I needed to get me out of the funk was to actually finish a project I started!
