Solar Walkway Lights

I started taking care of some things in the garage including some solar lights that I had bought a few years ago. Every time I think to put them in the ground it is too cold and the ground is frozen. Well, I finally got a nice day and decided to put them in the ground. They have a really nice starburst effect when they are lit up at night. Now no one has to move about like a ninja, as my sister Tara said, in order to leave the backyard.

New Toilets

When we returned home from our trip to Florida we discovered that the upstairs toilet was broken. I called our Plumber back on Friday but he was on vacation until yesterday. Today he came over and swapped out our upstairs and downstairs toilets. That was in the afternoon after I had had my colonoscopy.

The Colonoscopy went well. The prep was the worst part of everything. I was up at 3:30am this morning finishing out that drink and I still felt like I had to go all the way up to the procedure. Everyone at the hospital was excellent. They had a little trouble with finding a vein but that worked out fine in the end. Allison picked me up when it was over and I was going to get some sleep but our plumber was coming over and I had to let him in.

Our plumber ran into some troubles installing both toilets because of the way our house was built and remodeled. It wasn’t done that well and it made for a frustrating install. However, by the time I got home from taking Andy to rock climbing he had installed both of them. I am not looking forward to that bill.
